This intricately carved celadon jade piece from the Qing dynasty (18th–19th century) depicts two intertwined chilong—hornless dragons symbolizing auspicious power and imperial authority in traditional Chinese culture. Masterfully pierced and sculpted from translucent pale green jade, the dragons' sinuous forms are rendered with remarkable fluidity and finesse. The openwork technique not only showcases the artisan’s exceptional skill but also enhances the visual appeal of the jade by allowing light to pass through and accentuate its inner glow. The piece exudes a sense of vitality and harmony, with the dragons seemingly dancing in an eternal loop. It is in excellent condition, with no major chips or damage, and bears a natural, soft polish that has developed over time. Likely used as a scholar's object, it serves both decorative and symbolic functions, making it a culturally significant and highly collectible jade carving.
