The listing, $MORE SETS OF JADE FOUND$$TREASURE HUNTERS SPECIAL$$ DUG UP OLD JADE$$ has ended.
Well....Went hunting this week end and FOUND MORE sets of 7 more old Jade pieces to add your collection of old things! Listed 13 other sets of 7 jade pieces that I've found here in China where I live(this is my stock photo) all pieces I found are the same size and similar in colors!!...I live in one of the oldest N.E. cities in China for the last 10 years!! Liaoyang, China in the North Eastern part of Liaoning Providence! I'm always on the hunt for old things with my metal detector and got some hits on some old Chinese coins(about 300 years old) and while I was digging found these Jade pieces with two holes drilled in them.Would make nice pieces for a necklace or bracelet!!
From my studies, they could have been used for a few different things, that I've found out in my over 10 years here...For some kind of ornament to wear(like necklace, bracelet..ect...) or they use to use these pieces to make suits for the important people when they use to bury them to protect them in the after life!! Many different Jade items were buried with the dead to protect them in the after life!! Jade holds special powers here in China! Who knows!! I welcome comments!!.. IF GIN is used...Will add in 10 more of my Hellnotes and 3 Gold Foil Heaven sheets! You can see this site for a little info on Jade suits!!
