In Chinese people's minds, jade is the embodiment of beauty. They began to wear, appreciate and collect this much-adored stone long time ago. Craftsmen throughout the ages created exquisite jadeware which perfectly combined aesthetic appeal and practical use. This book introduces readers to the history of jade in China, its cultural connotations, varieties, shapes, patterns, and the ways to appreciate jadeware, and enables readers to have a better understanding of the unique jade culture in the country.
