Shang and Western Zhou
Works of jade from these two early periods have long been admired, collected, and exhibited. The Shang period dates from roughly 1600-1100 BCE, and Western Zhou from 1066-771 BCE. During this 800 year period, in the areas of modern day Henan, Shandong, Hebei, Shanxi, Shaanxi, and Sichuan Provinces, there was a flurry of jade working tied to local practices and innovations.
Each object has been carefully selected by Throckmorton Fine Art, Inc. and independently examined by Mr. Gu Fang, Senior Fellow of the Institute of Archeology, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, and author of over twenty books on jade archeology of ancient China.
