Guiqing jade is sharp at the top and rectangular at the bottom. The grain pattern is carved on both sides. The grain pattern is round and slightly hexagonal. 83 grains on each side are arranged in five vertical rows, 16 grains in two rows at the edge and 17 grains in three rows at the middle
This jade was acquired in 1960. From the quality, shape and decoration of its jade, it is similar to the valley jade pattern unearthed from the tomb of the Princess Liangzhuang in Zhongxiang, Hubei. Zhu Zhanyi, the king of Liangzhuang, was the ninth son of the concubines of Emperor Renzong of the Ming Dynasty. He was granted the throne in the 22nd year of Yongle (1424). Most of the artifacts unearthed in the tomb are relics of the early Ming Dynasty, which can be used to investigate the cultural relics of the early Ming Dynasty
“The Rites of the Zhou Dynasty · The Spring Official · Classic Rui”: “Gu Gui is difficult to marry, so as to hire a woman.” There is “Yu Gu Gui one branch in the” Ming Hui Dian · The Prince’s Wedding · The Engagement Gift “.” The Ming Hui Dian · The Princess’s Crown Clothes “also clearly stipulates that the princess needs to wear a dress in the reception, offering, and the court meeting activities, and among the various costumes of her dress is Yu Gu Gui. This is also consistent with the archaeological findings. The Yugugui unearthed at present is generally in the tomb of the princess. Therefore, Guwen Yugui was used in the Ming Dynasty for the engagement and engagement of the royal family, as well as the dresses of the imperial concubines or their relatives in the reception, offering sacrifices, and court meetings.
