Jade Gratitude Stone

The beautiful olive green Jade has been used as an amulet of good luck for over 6,000 years. We cannot talk about Jade without including both Nephrite and Jadeite, that have very similar vibrations and are often used as Jade. However, Nephrite ranges in colours from creamy white, mid to deep olive green, brown, and black. In comparison, Jadeite may be a white, green, leafy green, blue or blue-green, emerald green, lavender, pink, red, orange, yellow, greenish-black, black and other hues. The most prized color for jade is an intense, vibrant green, often referred to as "imperial jade" or "emperor's jade. The gemstone can exhibit various degrees of translucency, with high-quality jade displaying a smooth, polished surface and a lustrous, glass-like sheen.

Jade has been revered for thousands of years and is deeply ingrained in the cultures of various civilizations, particularly in East Asia and Mesoamerica. The two main types of jade are nephrite and jadeite, which have different chemical compositions but share similar physical properties. Nephrite jade is found in regions such as China, Russia, Canada, and New Zealand, while jadeite is primarily sourced from Myanmar (Burma), with smaller deposits in other countries like Guatemala and Japan. Jade forms through the metamorphism of existing rocks under intense pressure and heat, resulting in its characteristic tough and durable nature.

Jade can be carved into intricate shapes and designs, making it a popular choice for sculptures, ornaments, and jewelry pieces. Its toughness and resistance to wear make it suitable for both decorative and functional purposes.
