The Jade Journey
Memories of Warmth
My memory of jadeite is carried on warmth. As a child, I often followed my mother to seek these stones. I clearly remember the way she looked at each piece—not as if she were choosing an accessory, but as if she were having a silent conversation with an old friend from afar.
That sense of peace within her focus became my very first understanding of beauty. It wasn't about the price tag, but the silent resonance between the stone and the soul.
Beyond the Logic & Efficiency
Later, my life moved through the bustle of Paris and New York, operating within the precise gears of global corporations. It was a world that demanded logic, data, and ultimate efficiency.
Those were years of rational tension—fulfilling, yet always leaving a quiet yearning for nature amidst the noise of modern life.
A Shared Sanctuary
I founded AplusJade to find a modern home for the ancient, spirited beauty of jadeite. Gradually, this space became more than just a place to share these treasures; it evolved into a sanctuary within the bustling city.
Some customers have become dear friends, visiting every week like a quiet ritual. Together, we talk about the delicate balance of life and the profound realizations of passing years. The jadeite rests on the table, a quiet listener witnessing the trust and comfort shared between us.
Reflections in Light
In the stillness of the night, when the world fades to silence, I find my creative clarity under a soft lamp. The quiet accumulation of years and life's experiences have left a subtle imprint on every piece I design. I have long been captivated by the flowing light and shadow in Monet’s paintings—a fascination that mirrors my love for the natural, layered depths of color found in jadeite.
I strive to let the hues of each stone echo one another, weaving my reflections on life into every design.
Vision & Destiny
AplusJade is more than a brand; it is a breath of pause in an accelerated world. Here, what we share is not just the beauty of the stone, but a sense of unhurried elegance—a window left for time, and for destiny.
Amidst the urban bustle, jadeite is the piece of nature we carry with us. If you encounter a piece here that makes you pause for a second look, that is, perhaps, its very reason for choosing you.
