This is a large and heavy ancient Chinese nephrite scepter or adze.Measuring slightly more than a foot in length, the piece has two beveled ends, suggesting that it may have been intended for actual use, as opposed to a ritual item.

The stone itself is a mottled green and brown nephrite. Guaranteed ancient.

An authentic example of a shape that one only rarely encounters, described by Rawson as "scoop-shaped" in her authoritative book on Chinese jade.

This piece, as with the one published by Rawson, also has a curved cross-section and is drilled from both sides. The stone is a speckled light green. It measures 4" i...

This is a genuine, archaic Chinese nephrite axe or Gui scepter. The surface has the expected smooth, "waxy" feel to it. The end is sharpened (which leads me to think it was made as a prestige axe as opposed to a scepter, although the literature seems to view pieces such as this one as either/both an axe and a Gui scepter; e.g. Rawson in Chinese Jade - I've included photos of the pieces listed there for reference). The piece is made from a pale celadon nephrite with darker inclusions and some are...

As with the other examples, these three pieces join together to form a ring. To quote Rawson: "This set of pieces belongs to a distinctive category within the very wide ran...
