A CHINESE TIGER-SHAPED JADE PLAQUE, POST–SHIJIAHE CULTURE (c.2000 BC-1800 BC)
A rare white jade plaque masterfully carved in the form of a tiger with an elegant arched body and finely curled tail. The stylized silhouette reflects the powerful symbolism of the tiger in early Chinese culture, representing strength, protection, and spiritual authority. Its minimalist yet expressive design exemplifies the sophistication of Neolithic jade craftsmanship. Length 8.8 cm.
