Shoushan stone seal ‘Hand of Buddha’, 20th century

A beautiful amber-coloured stone carved in the form of a seal, with a tall rectangular base with incised poems, surmounted by the image of several masterfully executed ‘Finger citron’ or ‘Buddha's Hand’ fruits, from which hang small leaves. At the base is the four-character seal in bas-relief, with traces of red sealing wax. It shows wear due to ageing.
