Notes

Sometime back, already posted Deer with Longevity Herb,this is another and probably the same Jade Carver,as the style and structure is very similar. Consider this more superior,as the Jade  is much more translucent and the Stag(male deer) is very eloquently sculptured.

Incidently,as mentioned,the Lingzhi herb is a mysterious longevity herb and is one of my  health tonic i.e. imbibe some Lingzhi medicinal wine daily. (Please note that this is not a recommendation).
