Lyle Sopel Eagle in Flight Jade Sculpture - Lyle Sopel (Canadian, b. 1951). Large nephrite jade carved sculpture depicting a North American bald eagle in flight. The eagle is highly polished while the plinth it soars over is textured. Incised signature and numbered C687 along the base. Height: 18 in x width: 7 in x depth: 10 in. Condition: No major chips, cracks, losses, or restorations. Due to the uneven nature of the base, it is impossible to note if there are any unintentional chips. There is some slight roughness to the tips of the eagle's feathers, possibly original to the artistic process. Very light wear throughout.
