Three jade carvings

Three jade carvings
Qing dynasty and later
The first, a pebble of triangular profile retaining some of its original russet skin, delicately worked as two bats hovering over two peaches hanging from a branch and reversed by a ten-character inscription in raised running script; the second a thinly sectioned pendant carved and undercut to both sides as an archaistic ax blade with cloud-collar flanges projecting from along one edge and on the other a dragon with its tail curling upward toward the transverse guard beneath an animal mask forming the pommel; the third a thinly sectioned pendant finished as a winged dragon with a curling tail, the surfaces subtly defined with raised edges and shallow concave contours, one side retaining a mottled dark russet patch.
2 1/2in (6.4cm) width of pebble; 3 1/8in (8cm) length of pendants (3).
