Description

Chinese Qing Dynasty Pixiu jade seal. Carved into a square block with Pixiu striding on top interspersed with scrolling ruyi carved. Pi Xiu or Pi Yao, also known as Tian Lu, Bi Xie or Bai Jie, is a Chinese mythical auspicious creature with the fierce looking of a dragon head, horse body and unicorn claws; the winged animal's bold body resembles a lion covered with whitish-grey fur. Legend has it that Pi Xiu has a mouth but no anus, thus could gobble up anything without excreting. It is fond of water, gold, silver and jewels and takes wealth from all directions as food. Because of this, Pi Xiu has the meaning of bringing in wealth and treasure. Of course, it is capable of warding off evil spirits and bringing good fortune. Some people even believe that it can guard their homes, assist them from being offended the Grand Duke Jupiter and bring them good luck in love relationship. As a result, many modern people would wear a Pi Xiu. A story says that Pi Xiu was the 9th son of the Dragon King and it mainly ate gold, silver and jewels, thus spoiled by the Dragon King and the Jade Emperor. One day, Pi Xiu ate so much that it could not help urinating everywhere. The Jade Emperor became very angry, spanked it and sealed its anus. From then on, Pi Xiu could not excrete the gold, silver and jewels it ate. As the story was widely circulated, Pi Xiu was regarded as an auspicious animal for wealth. The Nephrite Jade has a lustrous tone, with pale-celadon iridescent and attractive sporadic golden russet inclusions, exquisite and detail, the jade stone have clean tone, with pale-celadon iridescent and moist milky appearance. The jade shows finely polished, smooth carving, moist milky yellow appearance, with beautiful golden russet natural inclusion.
The underside carved with six seal script -ZhuanShu- characters enclosed within a square frame border, with trace of iron-red pigment.
