About Jade
Jade is a notoriously lucky gem known for its splendid, marbled green hues. It’s also an Aries birthstone for March.
Since Aries tend to have tunnel vision, jade widens their view and creates a space for their inner wisdom to bloom. The mineral also serves as a chakra stone for Aries, clearing blocks within the heart, often attributing to their self-centric nature.
Jade, in all forms, is valued most for its metaphysical properties. It is the ultimate “Dream Stone,” revered in ancient cultures, as well as today, to access the spiritual world, gain insight into ritualistic knowledge, encourage creativity, and dream-solve. It is cherished as a protective talisman, assuring long life and a peaceful death, and is considered a powerful healing stone. An amulet of good luck and friendship, Jade signifies wisdom gathered in tranquility, dispelling the negative and encouraging one to see oneself as they really are.
Nicknamed the “Stone of the Heart,” jade is also the traditional stone gifted to your beloved on the 12th wedding anniversary.

If you wonder how Wyoming jade has come to the Netherlands. I received some Wyoming jades form my friend living there.
The term jade is applied to two distinct and unrelated mineral species.
Wyoming Jade is nephrite. Sinkankas (1959) considered Wyoming Jade to be some of the finest nephrite in the world. Wyoming Jade varies from translucent to opaque. Most nephrite contains some inclusions, which can affect its ability to take a polish. Lighter and brighter colors are rarer and are generally valued more highly than darker colors. Similarly, more translucent nephrite commands higher prices than nearly opaque material. These factors and their interrelationships determine the overall assessment of an individual piece of jade. Finished pieces of high-quality material vary upward from a few carats to many kilograms. Only about 10 percent of most nephrite deposits are considered gem quality.
