There was an old saying in ancient China, "Gold has its price while jade is priceless". The unique beautiful sheen and gentle nature of jade gave it a heavenly existence. As a result, jade was endowed with an ethereal beauty. The word "jade", other than representative of the natural stone, also meant a priceless spiritual wealth in Chinese people��s mind through the ages, symbolizing fine things and noble morals. A beautiful woman would be described as "with jade looks and jade figure". Parents would name their daughters after jade to refer to their beauty. Confucius, a famous Chinese philosopher, once summarized the characteristics of jade as "benevolence, enlightenment, purity, beauty and happiness". The development of jade artifacts in China date back to the prehistoric area through the Han Dynasty. The use of jade was embedded into every aspect of daily chinese life. It was a precious commodity that defined the social classes in society and was held as the most precious of all things.
