Antique Asian Decor: Carved Jade Pillow from ChinaJade Carved PillowSOLD This vintage jade stone pillow is unique in how it opens to reveal a compartment for keeping valuables, like jewelry, safe while the owner's head was resting on the pillow. The pillow features a cat face looking in both directions -- cats were symbols of protection and the ability to see in the dark. This pillow also features symbols for happiness, good fortune, and long life. The pillow kept its owner comfortable at night with its cool jade stone material and pierced carving which provided air circulation. Although the pillow appears hard by western standards, its shape is quite comfortable and is typical of antique pillows used since ancient times by Chinese people.Shipping of this selection to your location within the continental United States is $19.95 Delivery generally within 10-14 days or less.
