Jade (Hardcover)
by Roger Keverne (Editor)
This survey of jade use around the world is actually an anthology of essays by prominent scholars.
First, a gemologist explains the minerology of jade. Then a series of essays on jade use in China,
from prehistory to the present, takes up about half of the book. Finally, shorter essays address jade
use in Japan, the South Pacific, Europe, Burma, India, and the Americas. Excellent photographs
throughout the volume capture the visual
qualities that make jade so appealing.
