Round-carved sculpture of a lying deer looking back
Round-carved sculpture of a lying deer looking back
This jade deer is made of white jade, which is yellowish due to its maturity, and has brown-red patina and cow-hair patterns. The patina is very clever, and the color corresponds to the original fur color of the deer, which is very beautiful.
The deer looks back, with almond eyes, puffy cheeks, and ears sticking to its antlers. The two horns on its head are bent and tilted backwards, forming a three-pronged pair of horns that are connected to each other. Its limbs are bent, and it is in a lying position. Its long hooves are pointed and shaped like willow leaves. Its pointed tail is curled outwards.
This jade deer has full muscles, smooth lines and a lively expression. The jade is oily and has a thick patina on the surface, exuding a warm luster.
