This small figure belongs to a small group of strange mythical creatures carved in the round in the same distinctive posture, all with horns and long triangular beards holding a rosary in one hand. The dating of these ranges from the Six Dynasties Period to the Ming Dynasty. A mottled brown and grey jade figure of a‘squatting monster’dated to the Six Dynasties period is published in Rene-Yvon Lefebvre d’Argence, Chinese Jades in the Avery Brundage Collection, San Francisco, 1977, p. 68, pl. XXVII. Compare also with a very similar figure of a seated mythical creature from the collection of Gerald Godfrey, sold in Christie’s Hong Kong, 30th October 1995, lot 863. A third figure from this group dated to the Ming Dynasty, is illustrated in Chinese Jade Animals, Hong Kong Museum of Art, 1996, cat. no. 146.
