Re: Re: Really great jade pieces or fakes? |

Message Hi, Jim: You bought up a very valid point that I have surely missed - the carvings of these carvings are simply very delicate and detailed and were possibly carved with diamond tools. The interesting thing is the owner of these discs had never dated them or declared them as authentic (and authentic to what dynasty). When I questioned their styles (with both Zhou marks and Han dragons) and the fact that sundials were not invented till Western Han, her side kick, Joey, started claiming they were WS to W Han pieces. Thanks for your comments. Bill Post a Response |
