JADE

"Yu" Jade

DRAGON

Viewing stones, flower stones, Chinese stone carvings and pendants, books, bonsai, and other interesting things!

Ever wonder where the term "Jaded" came from? I originally purchased many of these items as authentic antique jade carvings. However I then sent four of them to an expert in jade antiquities. One was an antique jade carving, though not from the time period given. The other three were found to be authentic "frauds of the worst sort;" that is, not jade and likely not antiques.

However, take heart! If they are not antiques now they will be someday and you can get them now while the price is still good. And many of them undoubtedly are old, though with stone carvings it's hard to separate the wheat from the chaff. So I've lowered my prices (in many cases below my own cost) and I'm just offering them as Chinese stone carvings. Many are quite interesting and beautiful. I hope you enjoy them!

If you order any of these items along with a tree you can get free shipping!
