Oh woe is me. My “MINT” jade oriental has two flecks that were touched up with the wrong color paint, and the nose had been broken off and glued back on. At least it was well done, but def not mint as advertised. The griffin was supposed to be mint, too, but has writing on the bottom of the felt. Not too huge a deal, I guess, but annoying considering the condition of the jade. (They were both from the same seller) What a bummer. That jade was so sparkly and pretty. 🙁
