Description from the seller

A premium nephrite jade sphere, with its rich emerald green, traversed by fine veins that add depth and character to the stone. Hand-polished to achieve an impeccable level of luster, its smooth surface reflects light, revealing shifting hues. A highly valuable piece for both collectors and gemology enthusiasts.

In traditional beliefs, nephrite jade is thought to bring health, prosperity, and longevity. It is also regarded as a stone that promotes balance and harmony. People believe it may have healing properties, particularly for the kidneys (hence the name "nephrite," derived from the Greek "nephros," meaning kidney).

Seller's Story

The Mineral Art Gallery offers minerals, fossils, shells and natural elements. Born in Italy in 2017, today she collaborates with international galleries and collectors, she is a direct importer of large minerals and naturalistic collectible elements; deals with the processing to insert them inside the living space. A section of the gallery was dedicated to the Wunderkammer, "chamber of wonders or cabinet of curiosities" in which Mirabilia elements are presented: naturalia and italiania, a union between "the present is the past". All lots are shipped via DHL Express and Fercam couriers, with insured parcel and tracking.
