A group of three yellow soapstone seals and carvings
The first a miniature ovoid plinth surmounted by tiny, delicately carved ruyi scepter, the face crisply carved sui an, the stone a uniform translucent caramel color; the second a cube supporting a seated, two-horned lion-like beast, the face carved to read shang zhi, the stone depicting isolated patches of reddish glow to the otherwise creamy honey matrix; the third a small triangular specimen, carefully ribbed to depict willowy branches streaked in veins of gray.
1 3/4in (4.5cm) height of second (3).
