<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 5482950, member: 97383&quot;]S.T. That&#039;s quite a little treasure <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />! I collected jade for many years but have never seen a magatama pendant for sale, they are rare. Where did you find this one <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie12" alt="o_O" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />? I&#039;ve liquidated most of my jade over the last decade but still have a few pieces left. One piece I really treasure is pictured below, it&#039;s a gem quality jadeite pendant from Costa Rica, circa AD 300-700, 2.06 in. long. I bought it at a Pre Columbian Art auction at Sotheby&#039;s, NYC in 1994.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1239188[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>I believe the source for the Japanese magatama jadeite has never been located. As I&#039;m sure you know, the source for Chinese jadeite has always been Burma, &amp; only until the 18th century did they accept it as jade.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
