Description from the seller
First choice jadeite, a freeform stone.
Nephrite jade is a mineral composed primarily of calcium and magnesium silicate hydroxides, which give it its unique properties. Specifically, nephrite jade is composed of fibrous crystals that intertwine, creating a dense and compact structure. The fibrous crystals of nephrite jade are arranged to form a three-dimensional lattice, which gives it its hardness and strength. This structure also makes it highly resistant to fracture, making it ideal for use in jewelry. Nephrite jade has been used since ancient times for its beauty and healing properties. Nephrite jade was believed to improve physical and mental health, protect against negative forces, and promote prosperity and longevity. Today, nephrite jade is used in a wide range of applications, including jewelry, decorative objects, and alternative therapy.
