This Asian artifact is a beige jade square-shaped nude figure with a dragon/lion-like creature to the head with the phallus visible. It is made of a hard, tough and highly colored stone. Jade is widely used for fine carvings and jewelry. The mineral is translucent to opaque and comes in a wide range of colors including dark green, white, yellow, grey, red, black and beige. This piece is dated from 1300's AD and its dimensions are 7.5" x 3".
Asia is an extremely complex mosaic of intertwined cultures – some going back into the mists of time. If we look close enough, we do find that these ancient cultures have left their mark in subtle ways on existing Asian population. During the Bronze Age, S.E. Asia was a centre for sea trade used by China, Thailand, Java, India, the Persian Gulf and Egypt, creating a melting pot of cultures, forcing the native culture of the area to assimilate. Changes from Hindu to Buddhist and them to Islam and Christianity have not always been peaceful. Overtime Asian art has portrayed a mesh of cultures and gives a sense of intrigue into a variety of other worlds. |
