    This piece of Jade was purchased at an Estate Sale. Both husband and Wife are deceased, so information is sketchy. We were told they travelled all over the world and particularly Asia. If you notice there is some Chinese writing on the lid of the box. (?) It is cold to the touch, it is translucent, and hard, as my husband tried to scratch the bottom with metal, and it did not mark. It is 7" tall on a shiny Redwood base. That is about all we know. Any help identifying this piece would be appreciated.

      You need to flip your pictures before you post.

      What is it? You need to provide a description of WHAT it is a stature of - it is too hard to tell.

      Look at the clasp pins on the box with a magnify glass. See if there is a grain in it.If so look at the large end for an angled pattern if so they are ivory.
