White jade with ochre and russet inclusions, smooth surface polish China, Modern This very well executed jade belt hook features the portrayal of a horned phoenix. Whilst the front bears the wings crossed with naturalistic rendering of the plumage, the back has more archaistic feather patterns and stylized lotus petals at the knob. Belt hooks with phoenix head finials are rare to find as the dragon is the predominant beast used for these kinds of artefacts.
