Bi-Disc made of slightly transparent Jade (Nephrit) Warring States* (475-221 BC)* The Bi-disc is on both sides beautifully engraved. The figures are worked out higher to the base surface. Very beautiful work! Measurements: 25x5,5 mm Weight: 179 g Remark: Please notice, in found condition these Bi discs were strongly calcinated and were more or less cleaned (un)properly. Therefore the impression can result for a replication because after cleaning the most of them were polished with beeswax. All Bi discs are carefully examined by me microscopically and only originals will come into the sale. Please, take into account, that packing is more consuming, because I want that the Bi disc shall arrive you undamaged! *Before you purchase, please note, that the determination into the corresponding dynasties is very difficult since the artifacts were often used unchangedly over a longer culture time period. Even experts often have various opinions. The dynasties mentioned here, were all determinated by Chinese experts. Since the determinations are subject to various interpretations, a correction is reserved. A return because of wrong dynasty classification is not possible. |
