----------------------------Original message---------------------------- There is very extensive exhibition of jade at the Bowers Museum of Cultural History (2002 N. Main Street, Santa Ana, CA; tel.: [714]567-3600) which ends March 1st. It is "Jade: Ch'ing Dynasty Treasures from the National Museum of History, Taiwan." As well as I can recollect, there may be a video or two; but I have no idea what they may be offering for sale.
