Cut by hand, in Tengchong.
Every YunCui piece begins as rough jadeite sourced in Yunnan and carried to our workshop in Tengchong, the old jade town on the Burmese border. There, Master Chen and his team read each stone by hand — waiting for the rough to show where it wants to be opened before the first cut is made.
We work only in natural, untreated Type A jadeite. No dye, no resin, no polymer. Every piece is photographed under daylight, certified by the NGTC, and numbered before it leaves the bench. What you receive is exactly what was carved — nothing brightened, nothing hidden.
Jade has been a symbol of luck, protection, and quiet wealth across Asia for centuries. We make pieces meant to be worn close and kept for a lifetime — and, in time, passed on.
