About our workshop: Since ancient times, jade has symbolized wealth and power, reserved for only the chosen. Jadeite magatama and other jadeite beads have been excavated from Jomon period ruins in Japan, and the legend of Princess Nunakawa, associated with Itoigawa jade, is even recorded in the Kojiki, Japan's oldest historical record. Many gemstones are used simply as ornaments, but jade is not just that; it is said to have been used for a variety of purposes, including in rituals to offer prayers. Overseas, jade has been used as a material for ornaments and furnishings due to its beauty, but it has also been used far and wide as a stone with magical powers to heal the body, and as a spiritual stone in magic. It is also an interesting stone, as it is used for similar purposes in different places. What kind of power did ancient people feel from jade? Japan is said to have the world's oldest jade culture, dating back to the Jomon period 7,000 years ago. We feel it is our mission to spread the word about the splendor of Itoigawa jade, which has been treasured since ancient times, and to convey to the world Japan's jade culture, which is on a par with the Mayan and Incan civilizations, and we work every day in Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture. We hope that the works of our workshop will be of use to you.
