A VERY RARE GREYISH-GREEN JADE BIRD-FORM FINIAL/INSIGNIA

LATE SHANG-EARLY WESTERN ZHOU DYNASTY, 12TH-11TH CENTURY BC

The pendant is carved in the round as a bird with folded wings, seen in profile with a short hooked beak and upturned crest bifurcated by a notch. The details of the head, wings and tail are delineated by double grooves. The lower body tapers towards the bottom tab which is pierced from both sides. The stone is of an even greyish-green tone with minimal opaque white mottling.
