G039 White Jade Sheep Sculpture (Height: 5.80cm, Length: 10,80cm)

In ancient times, the words "羊"(Sheep)and "祥" (propitious) were used to represent the meaning of auspiciousness, so the ornaments of carved sheep were very popular. This jade sheep's head is raised, the chin has long beards, and it is lying down, quiet and serene, with a lively look, which has won the essence of the sheep and is lifelike!
The jade is bright and shiny; the carving is exquisite, the curvature is round and beautiful, the head is tilted to the right, and the left body is covered with a whole piece of mercury erosion. Such a large area of mercury erosion has never been seen before and is extremely rare. There is also mercury in the bottom of the sheep.
The right side of the jade sheep: the right half of the head and face and the right front half show white and moist jade, with its light connotation, and are very bright , while the lower right half still has some mercury corpses .

Looking at the whole device, most of the flaky area is corroded by mercury, and the black light is like lacquer and oily luster. It can be said to be gorgeous and hard to find! Extremely cute!
In ancient times, I was convinced that mercury can protect corpses without rot, and only the royal and prince generals have the qualifications and conditions to use a lot of mercury corpses! Modern scientists have used high technology to detect Qin Shihuang's coffin and floated on top of the mercury in an artificial pond!

To sum up: This device is truly unparalleled in the world. Its large area of mercury has never been seen before. It is extremely rare and shocking!
