Description: Jade is a revered gemstone often associated with green, but it can come in a variety of colors including red, yellow, and white. The stone exists mainly in two types: nephrite and jadeite, with jadeite being the rarer and more valuable. Jade is especially cherished in East Asian art and culture, where it has been used for millennia in ornaments, jewelry, and ceremonial objects. Its smooth, even texture and rich color make it highly desirable. Fun Fact: In Chinese culture, jade is considered the "Stone of Heaven," and is believed to embody virtues such as courage, wisdom, mercy, and justice. Jade bangles, in particular, are thought to protect the wearer by absorbing negative energies. It's also said that if a jade bangle breaks, it has taken a misfortune that would have otherwise befallen the wearer. Natural variances are part of the beauty of our genuine stones.
