Description

Unusual group in white and grey nephrite jade, depicting four figures with smiling faces in a lively scene. Two of them are standing: one is carrying a bouquet of flowers, while the other is raising his left arm, holding an object, possibly an instrument, while standing on a reclining figure. The fourth, crouching, is holding a ruyi in his hands. Three of the figures have their hair tied back and all are dressed in long, finely carved robes.
