We think this bed is not a true jade but what is called South Jade in China which is really Bowenite.
Bowenite is a type of Serpentine stone they have called jade for years and years in China and do to this day.
However it is a bit softer than true jade.

We have been told this is a very old, rare peice of chinese Jade art.
We have no proof of this. As we are told this historic bed was given from the emporor of china to his daughter as a wedding gift and sent by a fleet of ships to the south seas.
We have never seen such an ornate jade bed and anything is possible.

Size of jade bed : 210 x 180 x 220 (cm).
Ornament : Dragon God.
Jade Weight : 1.5 tons.

This is a "replica" of the Chinese Empress's, (Peraduan), Bed.
This is in the Purna Bhakti Pertiwi museum in Jakarta Indonesia.

This particular jade bed was made of the green jade-jadeite from the Yunan province, China.

They imitated the Chinese Empress bed in the Sung Dynasty (960-1279) and the Ming Dynasty (1384-1644).
