Hi,
New to Jade collecting. I picked this up in China during my last trip in October. Based on the quality of the carving it is far superior to most of the stuff I saw. That being said in China you never know what you have.
The piece is just under 7" long x 4" h x 2.25"W. Shows some nice but irregular patina. I did the scratch test and I can't make a mark into the material.
I do I go about authenticating what I have purchased? I live in the Chicago area.
Thanks,
Mike Benz
