Whether it was the brave heroes of the Sui and Tang dynasties or the gentle and elegant Yuan and Song dynasties, jade has always been a precious wealth and power of the royal family. Since jadeite jade entered the Central Plains, its rich colors were used to symbolize the five virtues and "red jade is called jadeite, and deep green is called emerald", it was crowned as a treasure and became a royal treasure of the Ming and Qing dynasties, thus laying the foundation for the maturity of jadeite jade culture.
