Geological Background

True Chinese jade is nephrite, a calcium magnesium silicate of the amphibole group. It forms through regional metamorphism of serpentinite deposits, creating tough, interlocking fibrous crystals that give jade its durability and smooth texture.
Nephrite jade from Xinjiang, Liaoning, and Henan Provinces in China is known for its subtle green to creamy white hues — the finest variety often called “Hetian Jade.”

History & Cultural Context

Jade has been treasured in China for over 7,000 years, long regarded as the “Stone of Heaven.” It symbolized moral virtue, purity, and protection — worn by emperors and scholars alike. Chinese artisans have shaped jade into ornaments, ritual vessels, and jewelry since Neolithic times, associating it with balance, wisdom, and prosperity.


Aesthetic & Collector Evaluation

This bracelet exhibits the soft translucence and waxy polish that distinguish high-quality nephrite jade. The beads show gentle color gradients from pale spring green to deeper olive, each one unique. The even polish and uniform roundness give the bracelet a calm, balanced appearance symbolic of serenity and endurance.


Metaphysical Notes

In crystal traditions, jade embodies harmony, protection, and emotional balance. It is believed to attract good fortune, promote longevity, and restore inner peace. Nephrite specifically resonates with heart-centered grounding, encouraging calm confidence and gentle strength.


Care & Handling

  • Roll bracelet on and off gently; avoid excessive stretching.

  • Wipe with a soft, damp cloth — avoid harsh soaps or chemicals.
