Vintage Chinese Serpentine Stone Pea Pod Sculpture-Leaves-Fruit-Jade Green-Carve

Charming hand-carved Chinese serpentine stone sculpture featuring a pea pod branch with two pale green pods and deep green leaves. Measuring 6.25" x 5.75" x 2.5", this natural stone carving was created in China during the mid-20th century (c. 1960s–1970s), when decorative hardstone fruits and vegetables were popular export pieces admired for their artistry and symbolism. The carving combines polished serpentine pods with darker stone leaves, wired together with a wrapped stem, displaying the traditional craftsmanship associated with Chinese decorative arts. Serpentine stone carvings were commonly made in the Guangdong region, valued as symbols of prosperity and abundance. A delightful accent for Chinoiserie, eclectic, or mid-century decorative settings, this vintage sculpture offers both cultural charm and collectible appeal. **Please note..One leaf has a small chip, but the piece remains highly presentable. Inspect all the photos carefully prior to purchase to ensure item meets expectations. Thank you!**
