Notes

Those who follows Archaic Neolithic Jade will recognise this. The Jade (Nephrite) Multi (4) Faces image has rarely been seen and this is an extremely well developed example of that image. Had it for umpteen years but quite reluctant to post it,as been seeing some 'fake copies' of collection Jades in other websites;auction or otherwise. Finally decided to post it as want to spread the fascination of Jade(Nephrite) and why it has been heralded as the 'Stone of Heaven' to the Chinese,present and ancient for nearly Eight Thousand Years!!
