Feline Head with Bovine Horns and Elephant Trunk
A small greenish-grey jade carving of a composite creature, its head marked with angular incised scroll and eye motifs. Two short projections rise from the top, and a curved, tapering form extends down and to the left like a trunk. Shown at an angle on a grey backdrop.
Look closer: Small red-brown staining along the lower right edge of the carving.
