In Chinese art, "jade" - known by the Chinese character "yu" - is an ornamental stone used in a wide variety of jewelry art, figure carving and other types of sculpture - in statue-form and relief sculpture. Jade carving has been an important material in goldsmithing since the age of prehistoric art, and still accounts for most of China's hardstone carving. One important reason why carved-jade objects are so highly prized, is because the Chinese believe that jade represents purity, beauty, longevity, even immortality.
