Manchu Qing Dynasty (c. 1644 ? 1912) - The Qing rulers came
from outside the Great Wall, in Northeast Asia. The Qing
Dynasty was the most successful dynasty of conquest in Chinese
history, and the empire over which it ruled and laid the territorial
foundations of the modern Chinese Nation-state. The singular
achievement of the Qing was to incorporate Inner Asian and East
Asian subjects into a stable multi-ethnic empire. The PRC ?
People?s Republic of China , established in 1949, is smaller than
the Qing empire at its peak by the subtraction of the
independent Republic of Mongolia.

Historical Value - Antiques bring the standards of couture into
the home. Antiquities are works of art or utilitarian objects from
ancient times, which have normally been excavated from tombs
or historical sites. The huge worldwide demand for these
ancient and often beautiful pieces has led to a critical shortage
and therefore prices have soared to an unprecedented higher
level.

DESCRIPTION: TWO-TONE NEPHRITE JADESTONE AXE

<p>

The head handle sculptured abstractly with
phoenix pattern on top and the blade inlaid with dragon design
and the blade tip embellished with dragon head. The colour of
ochre beautifully contrasts with celadon further enhancing the
sleekness of the axe. The style is reminiscent of Warring States.
