Message Bill, I can't say much about the jade but I'll throw in a comment about manufacturing. Below you'll see a picture of a pocket watch from my collection. The pattern on the back is called damascening. It is produced by a machine. There is a remarkable resemblance between the jade and watch patterns. Admittedly, this pattern is 2D. This watch was made in 1893. That gives the designers 100+ years to be able to create patterns in 3D. Cheers, Stan
