The lot is finely carved as a recumbent hound with it head resting on its front paws, the hind legs tucked under its slender body, the tail curled up alongside its left haunch, its ears, facial features and ribs well defined, the smooth stone of a yellow celadon tone with an attractive marbled light and dark brown inclusion along its head and front legs. The whole piece is endowed with accurate proportions, fine craftsmanship, and vivid design, inheriting the figure of jade hound from Song dynasty.
