How to Select Jade Crafts (English Edition): A Quick Shopping Guide for Travelers to China – What to Look For, Where to Buy & What to Ask

A Handy, Pocket-Sized Guide That Tells You What to Look For, Where and How to Shop for Jade in China, and What Questions to Ask — With Price Guides and Cautionary Advice to Avoid Overpaying
This is a shopping guide written for travelers to China—not a history of Chinese jade, and not a connoisseur‘s handbook. It tells you what to do when you are standing in a jade shop or a market: what to look for, where and how to shop, and what questions you should ask before you pay. It gives you price guides and cautionary tips, so you do not overpay for something you cannot evaluate. It is pocket-sized, made to be carried with you, and written in plain English for people who have never bought jade before. If you are going to China and want to bring back a piece of jade you can trust—rather than guess your way through a market or rely on a dealer’s word alone—this is it.
