While jade is often used as a decorative item, it is believed to have been used for a variety of purposes, including in prayer ceremonies. Jade has been used overseas for decorative and furnishing materials due to its beauty, but it is also an intriguing stone, as it has been used for similar purposes in far-flung places, such as for healing the body as a stone with miraculous powers or as a spiritual stone for use in magic. What kind of power did ancient people feel from jade? Japan is said to have the world's oldest jade culture, dating back 7,000 years to the Jomon period. We work daily in Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture, to spread the word about the wonders of Itoigawa jade, which has been treasured since ancient times, and to convey to the world Japan's jade culture, which is on a par with the Mayan and Incan civilizations. We hope that our workshop's products will be of use to you.
