Re: Chinese Jade Carving
All I can tell you is that, YES, it definitely appears to be pure jade and from what I've seen on auctions, jade is a good seller. As far as value...sorry...no help here.
Re: Chinese Jade Carving
Jade, both nephrite and jadeite, prove valuable as a raw material and as carved objects of desire. Tradition jade objects are respected and hold a high value as a possession or commodity of trade. The stuff is very hard: 7.5, compared to a diamond at 10 in this scale. Jadeite shines and shows a wide range of color. Nephrite shows a matt translucent finish. Beautiful item.
