Nuestro proyecto de vida:
Using historical facts and geological evidences, we have carried out field investigations, which allowed us to locate several mineral sources of the stone identified as jade in different areas of the so-called cultural subcontinent of Mesoamerica.

Working with these stone materials coming from those sources in the regions of Guerrero, Guatemala and mainly Chiapas, the base for the industrial development of this product is created. Beeing possible to develop work sources, that shares in a human and honouable way the economic benefits of the activity we developed.

Considering the great value, which was given to the products of this precious mineral by various ancient people, we open the doors to a museographical space in San Cristóbal, after 12 years of investigations and 3 years of operative work. This museum values the enormous appreciation of the jade in the history of eight Mesoamerican people: Mocayas, Olmecs, Zapotecs, Mixtecs, Teotihuacans, Mayas, Toltecs and Aztecs.

To support this cultural project and generally speaking  the aims of the economic development, the industrialization of the jewels is introduced with prehispanic and avant-garde details, commercializing them in suitable spaces in our facilities in San Cristóbal de Las Casas, Chipas and Antigua Guatemala.

The House of the Jade was founded in 1977 in the colonial city of Antigua Guatemala, developed from the sources with own registration in an area of the Sierra de las Minas in the county of Usumatlan Zacapa.  Our main facilities are located in a part of the El Jaulon building, considerated as a historical heritage of the city.

In 1990, after the discovery of sources in Chalchihuitan Chiapas, we begun to consider our develop as an industry in México, taking advantage of this circumstance given our company besides of a commercial vision a cultural back up.

In 1999, after widespread investigation, documentation and executive work, we opened the House of the Jade in San Cristóbal de Las Casas, Chiapas, Mexico. In the same city, in an old colonial-style house in the heart of the city, the Mesoamerican Jade Museum opened its doors in October 2001, totally sponsored by the House of Jade.
