    Description

    This enigmatic Chinese Republic Era carved soapstone seal features a coiled snake at its crest and scetched landscapes on all four of its facets.  It also has calligraphy on one side with a round framed cartouche that might contain the name of the maker of this piece.  I believe it dates to 1920 or earlier.  It is 3 1/8" tall and is 2" x 1 1/8" at the base.
