Notes

This is a unique and unusual Jade 'Bat'. In the series there is another 'Bat' but this emphasis is on the underbelly and especially the head. An unusual point to note on the head is the two depressions bored, to form the ears and of course the splendid undulating grooves of the typical Hongshan on the body and wings. All in all,a unique Hongshan Jade!!
