About our workshop: Since ancient times, jade has symbolized wealth and power, available only to the chosen few. Jade magatama and other jade beads have been excavated from Jomon period ruins in Japan, and the Kojiki, Japan's oldest historical book, even contains the legend of Princess Nunakawa, a goddess associated with Itoigawa jade. While many gemstones are simply used as ornaments, jade is said to have been used for a variety of purposes, including in rituals offering prayers. Jade has been used overseas as a material for ornaments and furnishings due to its beauty, but it is also an interesting stone that is used for similar purposes in faraway places, such as healing the body as a stone with mysterious powers, and as a spiritual stone used in magic. What kind of power did he feel? Japan has what is said to be the oldest jade culture in the world, 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.
