On a long table in a lakeside pavilion, a jade mountain carved with pines and pavilions lies on its stand, beside a jade cabbage with an insect on top, a two-handled jade vase with rings and a round lidded jade box, with a brush pot and books behind. Jade mountain and jade cabbage evoke the craft of turning stone into scenery for display.
