The Jade Museum’s collection includes over 1,000 items made of jade from which 200 are exhibited in three rooms and a fourth one serves as a boutique where jade items are available. The origin of this collection is the result of a quest that lasts for twenty years: Pierre Savoie, founder of the Jade Museum has acquired a large collection of jade and masterpiece over the years and developed an expertise in this field.

Knowledge of jade is difficult to acquire without visual and physical contact with the stone and the Museum’s aim is to allow the public to discover this stone. The Jade Museum is a unique concept that aims to be a nice addition to the cultural life of Quebec City.
