This life-size sculpture of a terrapin was carved around 1600 in India ?. It weighs 41kg and is made from nephrite – a type of jade. The material is harder than iron and cannot be carved using metal tools – examining this object with electron microscopes has revealed that it was carved with diamond-pointed tools and diamond abrasives. It would have taken around a year to create this fine sculpture, and the quality of the jade suggests the terrapin was a highly prestigious commission. #WorldAnimalDay #BritishMuseum #jade #terrapin #sculpture #India #Indian #diamond #?
