Take you on a tour of jade culture and experience

Today I will talk to you about jadeite. Speaking of jadeite, our Chinese jade culture has a long history. Two thousand five hundred years ago, our sage, Confucius, once compared the virtue of a gentleman to jade. (In ancient times, a gentleman must wear jade, with a zhengjiao on the right and a gongyu on the left. He would walk with a caiqi and a sixia. He would follow the rules when he turned and the rules when he bent. He would bow when he advanced and raise his hand when he retreated. Only then would the jade ring.) Speaking of jade, we have to mention the Empress Dowager Cixi, a woman who truly possessed supreme power in the late Qing Dynasty. She not only loved things like opera and calligraphy, but also had an extremely crazy love for jewelry collection. There were countless kinds of gold and silver jewelry, but Cixi's favorite was jadeite. For example, the melody of life is sweet, a blessed place with blessed people, etc.

  1. The movement of life

2. A blessed place for blessed people

3. The sky is the limit

Why is jade called jade? The word jadeite comes from the name of a bird. The bird with red feathers is called "fei" and the bird with green feathers is called "cui". Later, people also called the jade of the same color "jadeite". Red is jade and green is emerald


It is said that if a person takes care of jade for three years, jade will take care of the person for a lifetime. Jade has certain health benefits and the mineral components inside it are needed by the human body. Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" also records some of the benefits of jade. "Jade is the most beautiful stone, sweet in taste, mild in nature and non-toxic." It is believed that when people suck jade, with the help of saliva and its synergistic effect, they can produce fluid to quench thirst, remove heat from the stomach, calm down the upset mood, nourish the heart and lungs, moisten the voice and throat, and nourish the hair.
