GOOD JADE MONKEY on HORSE

The reclining Horse looking back at a small Monkey on his rump, forming the Chinese homonym "Ma Shang Feng Hou," a wish for immediate promotion to the rank of Marquis or in other words, for career success. The Monkey is holding a tiny Peach adding a further blessing for Long Life. Tail and mane striated and hooves delineated. The nephrite jade a light celadon with some russet and chocolate areas, softly polished in the old way. Quite an auspicious little amulet, early 20th C. work and from an old Canadian collection..
