Description
Large vase: 22" H x 8" D on base
In the Central Mountain Ridge of the Republic of China, there are deposits of various kinds of jade suitable for carving into art items. "Serpentine Jade" is a silicate of sodium and aluminum that occurs in microcystaline aggregates of a very firmly interwoven veined network of streaks and patches of seven different colors: white, brown, orange, yellow, blue, green, and purple, plus many variations.
This vase is hand carved from solid rock, heat treated to harden and further enhance the vibrant colors, and then given a high luster polish. To insure a watertight seal, the interior is glazed. The essence of "Heaven and the Earth".
