Chinese Jade Sphere 1.5"

Chinese jade is most often nephrite, a tough calcium magnesium silicate with a Mohs hardness of 6 to 6.5 and a waxy, buttery lustre, ranging from celadon to deep green. It has been carved into tools and ornaments for over 5000 years.

In Chinese tradition it is the most precious of stones, symbolizing purity, longevity, and protection. Metaphysically it is a stone of harmony, balance, and heart centred wisdom, bringing emotional steadiness, good fortune, and a calm, graceful way of moving through the world.
