CARVING PROCESS: The hand carving is performed by a master carver and takes weeks of work. The master carver first designs the artwork by taking account the natural jade features.

This piece is custom artwork that is designed based on the stone. This means there is only one piece like this in the world!
JADE COLOR: This jade piece has beautiful semi-translucent tones with striking hues of green and bronze mixd together. The tones are very beautiful throughout the piece!
