Nephrite is a type of jade. The name 'Nephrite Jade' comes from Spanish and means 'kidney stone' or 'lumbar stone.' The Maya and Olmecs believed in its beneficial effects on the kidneys and body detoxification.

It is believed that nephrite is most effective on the heart chakra.
The nephrite jade gemstones are crafted here in the form of a sculpture/freeform. Since each stone is unique, there may be variations in color, texture, and size.
