This is a jade carving from the Qing Dynasty or earlier (Song Dynasty) in China, depicting a child riding a horse with bent legs, smiling face, and holding a whip, exhibiting typical characteristics of the Song Dynasty. Jade itself has a thick patina, which is oily and delicate. Due to its long age, it has a brownish yellow color, vivid and lively childlike form, simple and smooth carving techniques, and high artistic appreciation value. Children, in ancient Chinese cultural traditions, are often regarded as symbols of purity and auspiciousness. Children hold whips and ride large horses, symbolizing promotion, wealth, and a family full of descendants.
