What is Jade? "JADE is a generic term which describes two different silicate rocks, the Pyroxene form is called “Jadeite”, and the Nephrite which is classified as an Amphibole...Jadeite is the harder and denser of the two and possesses a richer, more brilliant range of colors...For these reasons and because of its scarcity, jadeite is the most precious form of jade...." ~www.jademaya.com
