Agate pendant "Crab on lotus leaves", Qing Dynasty

Pendant carved from two-tone agate, a white and greyish hue, with high transparency, depicting a crab with a prominent body and defined claws, perched on a bed of finely detailed lotus leaves. The piece takes advantage of the stone's natural colour to contrast the dark crab against the light, translucent background of the leaves. It features holes for hanging.
