Purple Robe and Jade Belt Stone
Purple Robe and Jade Belt Stone is an extremely rare and precious type of jade in China, found only in Jinpingping, Dewang Township, Jiangkou County.
Purple Robe and Jade Belt Stone is hard, smooth, and lustrous, with vibrant colors, a delicate texture, and a natural oily sheen, making it an excellent material for craft carving. Artworks crafted from this stone possess high practical, collectible, and ornamental value. Items made from it, such as Fanjing Mountain Jade Inkstones, screens, murals, teapots, tea trays, teacups, zodiac plaques, pendants, bracelets, and statues of the Laughing Buddha, make valuable gifts for family and friends.
The nine-tiered tower carved from Purple Robe and Jade Belt Stone, representing Fanjing Mountain, is currently housed in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.
