About MeThis wooden stand is decorated with elaborate cutwork carved into rounded geometric shapes.

Suspended from the cross-bar of the stand are three carved jade pendant chains that hang from a single, larger pendant.

The mutton-fat jade used to make the pendants is white.

It is thought that the function of this object may be decorative or ceremonial, possibly a wind chime.

There are no works to discover for this record.
