NEOLITHIC CHINESE HONGSHAN CULTURE JADE SKULL

*FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE*

The Hongshan were a sophisticated society that built impressive ceremonial sites. Jade was obviously highly valued by the Hongshan. Artifacts made of jade were sometimes the only items placed in tombs along with the body of the deceased.

Excavated from mountains and picked up in riverbeds - and so known as 'the essence of heaven and earth', the stones could not be cut by a metal knife, and so they were shaped using a cord and sand acting as an abrasive before being more precisely carved using a drill and then polished.

People love good packaging and rightly so, which is why all our skulls are delivered in a beautifully crafted, ribbon secured, sturdy and protective SKULL BRAND cardboard boxes making them gift ready or just plain good looking.

SKULL products are hand made by Balinese craftsmen whose work is considered art. To keep this high level of standard, our production processes do take time. Please keep this in mind.
