Jade Cloud Bi Disc

Found in the tombs of ancient Chinese emperors and aristocrats, bi discs have a mysterious and spiritual history, and their function and significance remain uncertain. Thought to provide a conduit to the heavenly realm, bi discs are defined by their round, flattened shape and always carved of fine jade or dense hardstone.

Polished with smooth edges and a glossy sheen, this contemporary bi disc is carved of a solid piece of pale green jadeite, selected for its beautiful translucency and mottled patterning. Speckled shades of white, orange and green bloom across the stone, reminiscent of clouds drifting across the full moon. Set on a custom metal stand, the bi disc layers into modern interiors as tabletop sculpture with graphic shape and natural beauty.
