Jade Seal with a Figure Kneeling
Jade Seal with a Figure Kneeling
This jade seal is made of white jade, with orange patina, black spots, and orange peel patterns on the surface.
The seal head features a pair of jade figures kneeling back to back. The two jade figures look similar. They both kneel with their hands on their knees, have long braids on their heads, and wear hoop-shaped hair restraints on their heads, with a scroll-shaped decoration on the forehead, like a flat crown. Their faces are relatively flat, with pointed chins that are slightly tilted, big eyes in the shape of the Chinese character "臣", embossed wide noses and small mouths, small square ears, and solemn expressions.
The body is decorated with double negative lines. There is a handle or ribbon on the back, with two holes, one large and one small, which can be used to tie a tassel.
The jade seal is engraved with eight characters, and the strokes of the characters are free and smooth.
