Qing Dynasty Hardstone Animal Seal
Height: 5.9 cm
Width: 2.2 × 2 cm

This is a Qing Dynasty hardstone seal topped with a finely carved animal figure. The stone has a pale tone with natural inclusions and russet areas, typical of old hardstone materials. The animal on the top is rendered in a seated pose, with simple but expressive carving lines. The seal face features a square intaglio inscription in traditional Chinese seal script
