Black and white jade ‘Dragon’ seal, Qing dynasty
A Hetian jade seal carved in a single piece. It has a large square base on which is the image of an archaic dragon, crouched in a crouching position, its body coiled in such a way as to hold its elongated tail between its jaws. The body is decorated with fine incised details of spirals, curved lines and ruyis. The colour of the jade, which strategically combines two tones of black and white, emphasizes the white image of the beast on the dark base, where a five-character seal ‘寻孔颜乐处’ is finally placed. Qing dynasty (1644-1912) or later.
