I like your comment about who can really know what went through the mind of this bead's creator. Whatever it was had to have been important to them, as jade is difficult and time-consuming to carve, even if one is well-off and has a lot of leisure! I.e., it's not like sitting down and whittling something out of wood or modelling in clay. Even bronze casting is easier. Copyright 2024
