About me: I have been a member on Ebay for about two years now and I've been buying many different types of antiques on Ebay, private auctions, and estate sales. I am now in the process of opening up an antique furniture and decorative arts store and I overstocked a little so now I am selling some very beautiful and extremely rare antiques and items on Ebay. Check my feedback ratings. You can bid with confidence The Item: we present to you a LRG Chinese Genuine Jade Carving Figural Statue WOW! LARGE Wonderful Extremely Well Handcrafted Asian Chinese Genuine Jade Carving Figural Statue. It is very heavy. Within the large light green jade carving is an Asian religious figure holding a scepter with a large snake head in one hand and a tree like object in the other, of which the top slightly broke off in a manner that is virtually unnoticeable since it ends with the top of the stature and has a smooth top. It takes an enormous amount of time to hand craft such a detailed and difficult to create piece. This executes true talent. To the right of the figure are more wonderful hand carved over sized natural elements such as huge tree leaves and flower like objects. The figure is stunning, incredibly detailed and truly rare. Don't miss your chance to own such a piece of history. 10 1/2" high (would be higher if not for the chip) and 9" wide. Jade culture is very rich in China. We have only touched the surface of it. In conclusion, jade symbolizes beauty, nobility, perfection, constancy, power, and immortality in Chinese culture. The history of jade is as long as the Chinese civilization. Archaeologists have found jade objects from the early Neolithic period (about 5000 BC), represented by the Hemudu culture in Zhejian Province, and from the middle and late Neolithic period, represented by the Hongshan culture along the Lao River, the Longshan culture along the Yellow River, and the Liangzhu culture in the Tai Lake region. Jade has been ever more popular till today. The Chinese love jade because of not only its beauty, but also more importantly its culture, meaning and humanity, as Confucius (551 BC - 479 BC) said t are 11 De (virtue) in jade. Thus jade is really special in Chinese culture, also as the Chinese saying goes "Gold has a value; jade is invaluable." Dont confuse the low starting price with the quality of the merchandise.
