Strand of beads made from semi-precious stone - natural JADEITE in the shape of a ball

Those not familiar might be surprised by the diversity of colors of semi-precious stones sold under the name "jadeite". In reality, jadeite is found in a full spectrum of colors, with green considered the most valuable. In China, this stone is valued more than gold. Due to the limited quantities and high prices of high-quality material, jadeite is often bleached, treated, and dyed. Treated jadeite is significantly more affordable, making it more widespread in the market. After hematite, jadeite is the hardest known stone. No other stone can be carved into a continuous chain from a single piece of material and has been used as jewelry or a figurine for centuries. This durability allows precious works to be passed down from generation to generation as a family heirloom. Whether treated or not, jadeite is a beautiful material for jewelry, accessories, and decorations not only because of its strong aesthetic presence but also as a semi-precious stone that possesses a range of valuable metaphysical and energetic properties.

The metaphysical properties of Jadeite - In Chinese culture, there exists a legend that jadeite symbolizes the five human virtues: compassion, decisiveness, courage, wisdom, and justice. Symbols of these virtues are crafted from jadeite and nephrite and worn as talismans to protect against misfortune and calamity, create tranquility, and aid in making wise decisions. As a healer, jadeite benefits the kidneys and glands. It alleviates back pain, reduces fatigue, and improves sleep quality. It has the ability to enhance receptiveness to the psychic messages of dreams. Necklaces and bracelets made from jadeite have a positive effect on the heart and blood pressure, while a jadeite ring benefits eyes suffering from strain. People who suffer from nervous outbursts will be very positively influenced by an amulet made of jadeite. Beyond all its mystical properties, jadeite is an exceptionally beautiful mineral. It comes in many different colors, but green predominates, reaching shades of emerald green.
