Reopened in its brand-new home in mid-2014, this museum houses the world’s largest collection of American jade (pronounced ‘ha -day’ in Spanish). The ample new exhibition space allows the public greater access to the museum's varied collection of nearly 7000 finely crafted, well-conserved pieces, from translucent jade carvings depicting fertility goddesses, shamans, frogs and snakes to incredible ceramics (some reflecting Mayan influences), including a highly unusual ceramic head displaying a row of serrated teeth.
