Brand Story
Jingu Xuan, a jewelry brand from Henan, traces its roots to the jade carving workshops of the Central Plains during the Ming and Qing dynasties. According to legend, during the Wanli reign (1573-1620), artisans in Nanyang, Henan, were renowned for their exquisite jade carving skills. By the Qianlong reign (1736-1795), the local jade industry flourished, giving rise to the predecessor of Jingu Xuan—a shop dedicated to crafting and selling jade wares. The founder, the Jin family, devoted generations to jade, upholding the philosophy of 'jade virtue' and infusing Confucian culture into their works, earning admiration from scholars and literati. In modern times, Jingu Xuan has weathered wars and changes, preserving traditional craftsmanship while integrating contemporary design, becoming a representative of Henan's jewelry culture. Its pieces reflect the finesse and grandeur of Central Plains jade carving, carrying the profound heritage of Chinese jade culture—a testament to the blend of tradition and modernity.
