This carp-shaped vase was carved from a single piece of dark green and white jade in the 19th century under the Qing dynasty. Carp are a symbol of promotion and success in China. The piece is currently housed at the Tokyo National Museum.
The piece was crafted in the 19th century under the Qing dynasty using the qiaose technique, where the artisan carves the stone to maximize its natural color variations and hues.
