Jade articles have played a very important part in the Chinese
civilization and the Chinese culture has a splendid history. Jade symbolizes
good luck, peace and happiness in China, which are all the people yearn for.
There are two kinds of jade from the hardness. One is the soft jade which is
originated from China. The other is the hard jade which is originated from
Myanmar. Besides, jade can be used for medical purpose. Jade can help resist
heat stroke and help blood run smoothly. Thus, we have a proverb as "Gold
is valuable, jade is invaluable".
Modern research
has shown us that jade is renowned for its benefits to health as it has
different mineral elements, including zinc, magnesium, iron and copper. Wearing
and using jewelry such as jade pendant , jade rings, jade Buddha and
other jade products is not only beautiful and practical, but when it's
constantly moving against your skin and acupuncture points, it can clear the
meridians and help to enhance blood circulation so as to prevent and treat
diseases and conserve health. It is believed that it is very useful as an
amulet.
Jadeite is very much harder than nephrite. China Jade value is
determined by its color, so the uniformity of the emerald color will cause it
to have a higher value. According to the ancient history of jade, fine jade in
Chinese refers to nephrite and is also called true jade. Examples of this jade
are white jade, gray jade, green jade and dark jade. It is clear that the two
kinds of jade contrast their different attributes... the hard jade does not
have a great deal of variety, but the nephrite in some indefinable way is
spiritual. Jade jewelry is very popular in people
for its delightful color and valuable jadeite jade material. However, one must
be careful while selecting the proper jade jewelry because it can be quite an
investment so one must make sure that the jade used is pure and of top quality
so that one can feel the sublime charm of jade jewelry.
However, the green Jade Buddha is the most popular and common especially in Asia
because they are considered to be linked to intuition, ability, and happiness
and also as a token of thanks. In fact some rings are believed to possess
healing properties both for the soul and the body and are worn to prevent or
treat diseases or to simply ensure good health.
