pink white jade carving of Happy Buddha with a child on his shoulder. Quite old
and somewhat worn from handling, summarily carved on luminous material which,
when held up to the light reveals an inner glow that tints the figures with the
pale peach tone of flesh. A highly auspicious amulet, carved on the back with
an open lotus leaf.
