A jade carving, in shades ranging from pale to dark green, features a circular base supporting a large, maned creature at the top. This creature faces right, clutching a winding stem in its mouth. A smaller, similar creature rests below, connected by thick stems with rounded blossoms and pointed leaves. Open gaps are carved throughout the polished, translucent stone, showcasing the intricate and fluid nature of the sculpture.
