About Us
JADEscape
From Mine to Market — A Vertically Integrated Jade House
Our Story
JADEscape was born from roots that run deep — literally into the earth. Our founder's family hails from Guatemala, the birthplace of the world's finest jadeite, and it is there that our journey begins: working directly with mine owners and operators to source rough jade before it ever becomes a finished piece.
Raised in Canada, a second home to some of the world's most prized nephrite jade, our founder carries a deep personal connection to both traditions. And over 15 years of traveling the world aboard cruise ships, rare and extraordinary jade sources were discovered — from the steppes of Kazakhstan to the highlands of Mongolia — stones that most of the Western world has never encountered.
Today, JADEscape is on a mission to introduce these remarkable jade origins to the American and European markets — not as a reseller, but as a manufacturer with direct relationships at every link in the chain.

Not a Reseller. A Manufacturer.
This distinction matters. We do not purchase finished jade products and mark them up. We are involved in every step — from selecting rough stones at the source, through manufacturing, to delivering the finished piece directly to you, whether wholesale or retail.
Direct Mine Sourcing
We work directly with mine owners and operators in Guatemala, Canada, Kazakhstan, and Mongolia — selecting rough jade at the source before it enters any supply chain.
In-House Manufacturing
From rough stone to finished piece, we control the manufacturing process — ensuring quality, authenticity, and provenance at every stage.
Wholesale & Retail Direct
We sell directly to collectors, retailers, and trade partners — no middlemen, no markups on someone else's work. Just genuine jade, priced fairly.
Vertically Integrated
JADEscape is building a fully vertically integrated jade platform — the only way to guarantee true provenance, consistent quality, and a fair price from mine to market.
Our Jade Origins
Each source tells a different story — of geology, culture, and the hands that have worked these stones for generations
Guatemalan Jadeite
Our heartstone. The rarest and most prized jadeite in the world, sourced directly from the Motagua Valley — the same region that supplied jade to the ancient Maya. Our family roots run deep here.
Canadian Nephrite
Raised in Canada, our founder has a special affinity for British Columbia's world-class nephrite jade — a stone of remarkable quality, known for its deep greens and exceptional toughness.
Kazakh Jade
Discovered through years of world travel, Kazakh jade is virtually unknown in Western markets. We are proud to be among the first to bring this extraordinary stone to American and European collectors.
Mongolian Jade
From the vast landscapes of Mongolia comes another rare jade source, uncovered through 15+ years of global exploration. Unique in character, and largely unseen in the West — until now.
Our Core Values
These principles guide every decision we make and every partnership we forge
✨ True Provenance
We know exactly where every stone comes from — because we were there when it came out of the ground.
🌍 Global Discovery
Over 15 years of world travel have uncovered jade sources that most collectors have never heard of — and we're bringing them to you.
💎 Manufacturer Quality
We don't buy finished goods. We make them — controlling quality from rough stone selection through to the final polish.
🤝 Direct Relationships
We work directly with mine owners and operators in every country — building long-term partnerships rooted in trust and mutual respect.
🌿 Sustainability
Responsible sourcing and long-term stewardship of the communities and environments we work within.
❤️ Family Heritage
This is personal. Our Guatemalan roots, our Canadian upbringing, and our global journey are woven into every piece we create.
