Jade
Authentic natural minerals, thoughtfully sourced and individually photographed.
Jade — Nephrite & Jadeite
The term "jade" refers to two distinct minerals: nephrite (a calcium-magnesium silicate) and jadeite (a sodium-aluminum silicate). Nephrite is more common and ranges from creamy white to deep green. Jadeite, rarer and harder, produces the prized imperial green. Major sources include Myanmar, British Columbia, and New Zealand.
What is the difference between nephrite and jadeite?
Nephrite is composed of interlocking fibrous crystals that give it extreme toughness — it's actually tougher than steel. Jadeite has a granular structure with higher hardness (6.5-7 vs 6-6.5) and can achieve more vivid colors, particularly the translucent emerald green known as "imperial jade."
How can I tell if jade is real?
Genuine jade feels cold to the touch, has a smooth waxy luster, and is surprisingly dense. At Crystals.com, all our jade is verified natural — we never sell dyed or polymer-impregnated specimens without full disclosure.
