A Chinese Archaistic Jade Mask with Stylised Facial Features.
The facial structure is rendered in a highly stylised manner, with deeply incised, symmetrical features: arched eyebrows extending into the nose bridge, almond-shaped pierced eyes, and pronounced lips. The forehead is decorated with vertical grooves, possibly evoking a headdress or coiffure, while the sides bear squared motifs and perforations, likely for attachment.
H: Approximately 15cm
L: Approximately 12cm
Provenance: Private collection from a British gentleman.
