Jades

China's history with jade dates back 8,000-9,000 years when "jade" was selected from stone tool production processes. As thought and culture developed, beautiful jade was given religious and moral significance. Jade objects evolved in form, used for communicating with deities, carrying out rituals, symbolizing virtue, personal adornment, and expressing cultural refinement, gradually forming the rich Chinese jade culture. Aurora Museum's jade collection spans from the Neolithic period to the Qing dynasty, including major forms and patterns from each era, clearly tracing the development of ancient Chinese jade objects while reflecting the artistic styles, ideological trends, and lifestyles of different periods.
