Jade. China, poss. Ming Dynasty
The grey-green jade with red-yellow areas containing iron presents a “finger lemon“, called in China Foshou 佛 手, literally "Buddha hand". The sprouts on the fruit look like fingers, because of its nice fragrance it was displayed in rooms. Since hand shou is homophonic to shou "long life", it is accordingly distinguished in its symbolism. This jade was a worry stone, indicated by size and good rounding of the piece. Nice carving quality. 玉造佛手柑。中國,約明代。高8.5厘米。 galerie zacke 76
