 Jade has hardness of 6 Mohs. It is formed of nephrite and calcium magnesium silicate and its specific gravity is 2.9 - 3.1. It is available in white, deep green, creamy brown. The beauty of jade is unsurpassed with its semi translucent look and swirls of green which have an irresistible aura of strength and beauty 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. Jade Carvings are exceptional pieces of personal artwork to wear yourself and wonderful gifts to give to someone you really care about. Over a period of time the Carving absorbs oils from your skin and changes color to a very light honey gold.
