Emperor Qianlong and Jade

This book is the manuscript summarized and collated by the secretary of the First Historical Archives Party Committee according to the archives and materials collected by him over many years and his own many years of actual practices, which has an extremely high historical value and heritage value. The book revolves around Qianlong's whole life, who, in addition to be an emperor, also had a very broad interest especially in jade, he not only likes jade, but also know well and can appreciate jade, who knew very well the processing of jade. Many of the current royal fine jade articles were handed down at that time. This book, based on the records of archival data, also introduced the number, style and pattern of jade articles handed down from the Qianlong period and made a detailed description of them, which has a certain reference value for today's identification of cultural relics, especially for the negative attitude the current experts held on the driftage of royal jades and porcelains to the folk, the publication of this book is subversive to some extent, so that people can re-recognize that there are royal porcelains and jades in the folk. This book is highly appreciated and prefaced by Yang Zhen, the deputy director of the Research Institute of History of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
