A tea bowl cut from a single block of nine dragon jade, 5 inches, 913 g.
Nine Dragon Jade is a trade name rather than a mineral species — the stone is a dense silicate marbled in green, cream and rust, and it is sold as jade for its hardness and polish rather than its chemistry. The mottling runs right through the block, so what you see on the surface is a slice through something continuous.
Hollowing stone is slower and riskier than shaping it — the wall has to stay even, and any flaw the block was hiding will find the thinnest point.
