Product details

Whence comes the sound of the jade flute,
Flying through the dark,
Coming with the spring wind, Hovering over Loyang?
Li-Po

The Chinese held jade in the greatest veneration. The word for jade, 'yu', also signified a beauty of spirit and the stone became the symbol of the five cardinal virtues. Jade's ability to produce a pure musical tone was known in China from very ancient times and indeed, gongs were made out of the material. Jade was widely used as a miracle medicine as well as the most prized stone for elaborate works of art.
