Description from the seller
Beautiful dragon on stand Made of Chinese Jade
Jade, like soapstone and chalcedony, has been cut and worked by the Chinese for thousands of years. Originally used as tools, jade became popular as jewelry during the Han dynasty. In China, nephrite is found around the city of Khotan in Xinjiang.
Jade is considered a valuable stone that wards off evil forces. If someone wears a piece of jade on their body for a long time, for example on a piece of red thread around the neck, they will notice that the jade gradually changes color.
During the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the medals were made of jade.
