About Jade

Xinjiang Jade

Long revered by Asians as the most precious of all stones for centuries,
besides being the most beautiful and valued natural material for making
jewelry and utensils, jade is considered to possess the power of good luck,
good health, and the ability to resist evil spirit and to get rid of bad luck.Xinjiang Jade(from Hotan)The name derives from jade. Because of its fibrous, felt-like
structure, it is very tough and resistant. It occurs in all colors. Fractures
are dull and when polished, greasy, sometimes even pearly in luster.
The most important Jade deposits are in Xinjiang China Silk Road, near Pakistan,
interlayered in serpentinite, or in secondary deposits in conglomerates or in
river gravels. The material found there is exported to China and Hong Kong.All the Xinjiang Jade jewelry we carry is manufactured in Xinjiang Hotan.
Colors of the Jade: Brown, blackish, violet, green, also white, reddish,
yellow, often spotted. Here I se;; the xinjiang Jade pillow and comb and other products at the left.Hotan Jade is soft jade and Burma jadeite is the hard Jade. So soft jade is the better jade!
