History & description
Museum Collection _ Not For Sale
Behold the majesty of this stunning jade urn, adorned with intricate feather-like carvings on its surface, evoking the graceful movement of the mythical phoenix bird. The phoenix is further depicted in exquisite detail, soaring amidst the delicate lotus petals that adorn the urn's base. The lid of the urn is crowned by the regal head of the phoenix, symbolizing power, renewal, and prosperity.
The subtle, yet powerful symbolism of this urn is further enhanced by the presence of lotus petals, representing purity, perfection, and the promise of spiritual enlightenment. The combination of these powerful symbols creates a sense of harmony and balance, reminding us to cherish the beauty and mystery of life.
The jade material itself is highly prized for its metaphysical properties, and has long been associated with good luck, prosperity, and harmony. As a symbol of purity and serenity, jade has been used in spiritual practices for centuries, believed to enhance inner peace and wisdom, while also promoting physical healing and emotional balance.
