Mythology & Historical Lore:
Jade has been revered for thousands of years across Chinese, Mesoamerican, and Maori cultures. In China, it symbolised virtue, purity, harmony, and longevity — often considered more precious than gold. It was carved into ceremonial objects, ornaments, and imperial seals. In Mesoamerica, it represented life force and authority. The Maori of New Zealand carved pounamu (nephrite jade) into sacred tools and heirlooms signifying strength, ancestry, and protection.
Birthstone: Jade is not a modern primary birthstone.
Major Sources: Myanmar (Burma), China, Guatemala, New Zealand, Canada, Russia.
Treatment Disclosure: Jadeite may be treated (bleached and polymer‑impregnated, known as “B‑jade”). Nephrite is generally untreated. Disclosure of treatment type is important in higher‑value pieces.
Gemmology & Geological Profile:
Jade refers to two distinct minerals: jadeite and nephrite. Both are exceptionally tough rather than simply hard, making them ideal for carving and heirloom-quality objects. Jade forms in high‑pressure metamorphic environments and has been prized for tools, jewellery, sculptures, and ceremonial pieces for millennia.
