A CHINESE YELLOW JADE MODEL OF A CRANE
LATE QING DYNASTY/REPUBLIC PERIOD

Sitting with its head turned over its back, holding a fruiting peach spray in its beak, the peaches and the crane's head picked out in the brown inclusions, together with a wood stand, 10cm. (2)

The crane together with the peach form the homophone 'he shou yan nian? (may the crane and peaches extend your years).
