Jade, like soapstone and chalcedony, has been cut and worked by the Chinese for thousands of years. Jade was originally used as a tool but came into use as jewelry during the Han Dynasty. In China, nephrite is found around the city of Khotan in Xinjiang.
Jade is considered a valuable stone that wards off evil forces. If one wears a piece of jade on one's body for a long time, for example on a piece of red thread around the neck, one will see that the jade slowly changes color.
During the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the medals were decorated with jade.
