Description.
A small ‘Gouyun Pei’ plaque made of jade with ochre-coloured flecks. It has a rectangular shape ornamented with archaic relief and incised mirror motifs and a serrated base.
Although its purpose is unclear, it may have been a decorative ornament for clothing due to the hole in the upper area. It shows patina from ageing.
