   Similar jade discs were made in the Warring States and Western
   Han periods. Compare a jade bi made for the King of Nanyue,
   with a proportionally larger aperture and dragon in the centre,
   illustrated in Zhongguo Yuqi Quanji 4 – Qin, Han, Nanbeichao,
   Hebei, 1993, p. 23 no. 30 (fig. 1).
   青白玉,局部有褐色沁斑,體片狀,圓形,兩面紋飾相同,中鏤空
   透雕一隻龍,昂首挺胸,口張尾捲,遒勁矯健,有奔騰之勢。璧體
   滿飾旋形榖紋,拋光細膩潤澤。
   此類玉璧於戰國至西漢期間均有製作。可比較南越王墓出土的一件
   玉璧,其開孔及龍紋比例較大,著錄於《中國玉器全集 4 – 秦、
   漢》,河北,1993 年,頁 23,圖版 30 號(圖一)。
