Description
Cool against the skin and heavier than its size suggests, this polished green stone rests in the palm as an egg-shaped form with a satisfying, grounded solidity, its smooth surface interrupted only by the faint translucence that glows at the thinner edges when held toward light.
Jade holds an unbroken place in Chinese civilization spanning more than five thousand years. Prized above gold and silver, it was shaped into ritual objects, burial offerings, and imperial regalia. Classical texts from the Zhou dynasty onward enumerate its green varieties among the five virtues of stone, associating the material with moral refinement, longevity, and considered judgment.
Cut and hand-polished into an egg-shaped form, the stone presents a glassy surface that preserves natural color variations, from deep forest green to lighter celadon-tinged areas. Green jade, whether nephrite or jadeite in composition, is characterized by a tightly interlocking crystal structure that produces exceptional toughness and the temperature stability that gives it its characteristic cool feel.
The stone measures approximately 4 to 5 centimeters along its longer axis, with a width of roughly 3 centimeters at its widest point. Material is natural green jade with a full surface polish. Supplied as a loose stone; no cord or mounting is included unless otherwise noted at purchase.
Green jade is one of the few materials whose use in art and ritual can be traced without interruption across millennia. Each stone varies in its exact depth of color and surface markings, making every piece distinct.
