Jade has been a treasured stone in China for over 7,000 years. In ancient times, jade was believed to have magical powers and was used for both practical and ceremonial purposes. It was also believed that jade could ward off evil spirits and bring good luck. This belief in the spiritual power of jade is one of the main reasons why it has been so highly valued throughout Chinese history.
