The stone is of slightly pale celadon white tone. Length: 13 3/4 in (35.0 cm) Provenance: Property from an important private collection, Los Angeles 此柄如意以整塊白玉雕琢而成，質地光潤，略帶皮色。所雕如意呈瑞芝狀，雲葉首，四周所起如意雲紋邊框，首面隆起，正中心圓框開光饕餮紋，鳳鳥紋，用工極精，線條洗練順暢。柄身中部微隆，由上而下漸寬，至趾部呈元寶形。柄身正面淺雕壽字紋，寓意福壽雙全。清代帝王喜好如意的風尚早已是不爭的事實，但從保存到今天仍基本維持原貌的部分清宮陳設不難發現，一般擺放在寶座一旁的如意多以玉石為主，顯見玉雕如意身價不凡的歷史意義。整器造型雍容端莊，曲線婉轉流暢，結構嚴謹有度，形制典雅，彰顯出至尊無上的皇家氣息。 来源：洛杉磯重要私人藏家收藏
