The Story Behind the Art
In the HeNan province of China, almost everyone knows how to carve jade. HeNan is located in central China and is historically famous for its unique jade productions and art. Jade carving is a traditional skill that has been passed down for generations. Most families have a jade carving workshop in their home. A coordinator gathers orders and then assigns them to artists in town. At the end of the day, they gather the completed pendants and pass them along to the coordinator to fulfill the orders. Jade carving is what the town relies on to make a living. The artists hope you will help them keep their traditional art form alive as well as proving them with a living.
