When planning Tintin in Tibet, one of Hergé's starting points was a statue of the Buddha. This idea was later dropped - but where can we see a jade Buddha in the series?

It seems two green or 'jade' Buddhas can be spotted in The Secret of the Unicorn:

- on p.41-B2 (in front of a column, when Tintin is about to cross the brick wall, in the Hall's chapel)
- on p.44-A3 (on a chest of drawers, behind a yellow jar).

I only spotted the second one, I should really search more thoroughly for questions. So the point goes to you - next question please!
