the three rams carved in a recumbent pose with curved and notched horns, the largest with a large sprig of lingzhi centering a yin-yang symbol in its mouth, the two smaller animals nestled alongside, one nibbling the fungus, the translucent stone a creamy white with opaque russet inclusions

Overall in good condition with a few minor scattered nicks. There is a small bruise to the edge of the russet tail. The color of the stone is slightly whiter than in the illustration in the printed catalogue.
