Description from the seller

A striking large handcrafted Nephrite Jade freeform, featuring rich natural shades of green with contrasting cream to pale-green matrix and flowing fibrous patterns throughout. The stone displays a beautiful variation in colour and texture on every side, highlighted by a smooth, high-quality polished finish.

The tall, sculptural freeform has been carefully shaped and polished by hand in Peshawar, Pakistan, allowing the natural character and movement of the Afghan Nephrite to remain prominent. Its substantial size and distinctive organic form make it an impressive decorative piece as well as an attractive addition to a mineral or gemstone collection.
