The beauty of jade is unsurpassed with its semi translucent look and swirls of green that seem to float deep within the stone. Hold a jade carving up to the light and you will truly be looking into another world. Hold it in your hand or against your skin and it will transform into a dark green sometimes almost black with subtle glimpses of its secret inner life appearing as it moves. Nephrite jade ranges in colour from a very pale green to a very dark almost black jade. It is found in many countries around the world so many carvers use jade from Australia or even Canada when stocks of local stone are low. Jade has been used as an ornament for the human body for literally thousands of years. In fact, it may be the modern precious gem that has been used for jewelry the longest, and most consistently. Today, as ever, jade jewelry is worn by humans. Jade jewelry can be found in a very wide variety of styles, from the most traditional to the most modern, from the for east to the far west. Jewelry isn't just wearing a pretty necklace. I believe that jade has natural healing properties, and that unique one of a kind items, especially custom designed, are priceless. It's amazing the depth and symbolic meaning that you can find in necklaces, bracelets, rings, pendants and even earrings, if you know what to look for.
