Vase

A pale celadon jade vase with a flared, lobed mouth and a fluted body that narrows to a splayed foot. Two lion-mask handles hold loose rings at the shoulder, and the carved stone shows a soft, translucent sheen against a gray backdrop.

Look closer: Small carved details of the lion-mask handles, with the loose rings hanging through their mouths.
