Notes

This Jade(Nephrite) Zoomorphic Rabbit i.e. with a rabbit's head but a zoomorphic body. The ears are long with a slight canal depression all round.There are two arms protuding around the center hole and the curved bottom has the characteristic grooves of the Hongshan Culture. There is a hole drilled from both sides at the back for attachment. This is one of my earliest Hongshan Culture Jade together with the 'Jade Humanoid Female?' and is unique and one of my favourite.
