Description
Translation provided by Youdao
A Pair Chinese Qing Dynasty of captivating Nephrite slabs rests on hand-carved wooden stands. Expertly hewn jadeite forms rectangular sheets. Both table screens complete a singular image. Depicted is a meeting between village officials amongst the sprawling hillside. Several traditional Chinese architectural structures dapple the mountainside. The alternate reverse sides carved with fine gilt inscriptions. The jadestone is translucent in appearance with creamy white coloration. A few russet colored inclusions are present in this splendid piece of craftsmanship. Note: Jade, as a stone, has five virtues. Its glossiness and warmth is like benevolence. Because inside and outside is the same, so that knowing the outside one knows the inside, this may be likened to righteousness. Its far-reaching sound (when struck) may be heard from afar, like wisdom. It is not easily bent, but can be broken, which may be likened to courage. Jade can be sharpened, but not to the point where it can injure people; this quality is like self-regulation or restraint.
