Lot #54 Antique Hongshan Jade Chinese Pig Dragon pendant
A pig dragon or zhūlóng is a type of jade artifact from the Hongshan culture of neolithic China. Pig dragons are zoomorphic forms with a pig-like head and elongated limbless body coiled around to the head and described as "suggestively fetal".
Early pig dragons are thick and stubby, and later examples have more graceful, snakelike bodies.
