Description Nephrite is a form of jade that is composed of jade and actinolite. It is slightly softer than jadeite (the other form of jade), but tougher than jadeite because nephrite has a denser structure. Jade is said to bless whatever it touches, serving mankind across the globe for nearly 6,000 years. It is most valued for its metaphysical properties. It is the ultimate “Dream Stone,” revered in ancient cultures, as well as today. Jade is the stone of calm in the midst of storm and it helps encourage creativity. *The 7mm and 8mm are vintage beads made with nephrite jade from a mine in Taiwan that has been closed for some time.
