Jade Tumbled Stone

Jade is one of the oldest gemstones known, with a history stretching back more than 7,000 years. 
 
Jade refers to two crystals, one of which is Nephrite Jade and the other is Jadeite. The two types of Jade are essentially identical in appearance. Nephrite occurs mainly in white and grey, with variants in dark green, reddish brown and black. Jadeite occurs in a wider range of colours, including green, lavender, yellow, black and white.
 
Jade is mined all over the world, including Burma, Guatemala, and Russia. The mining of Nephrite Jade takes place in Siberia, China, Korea, and New Zealand. All of the Jade mined in China is Nephrite and it is a stone that has been admired in China for over 4000 years, commonly associated with luck and prosperity. 
 
During the Stone Age, it is believed that weapons and tools were constructed using Jade for its toughness. Artists also used Jade to produce decorative and ritualistic objects.

Metaphysical properties in detail
 
The energy of Jade is soft, gentle and watery like a clear still pool, and is immensely cleansing and detoxifying. It can calm and soothe, bringing you tranquillity, helping you to relax physically and mentally. Its colour and connection with the upper heart chakra brings gentle support to the immune system, and balance on many levels, including balance of thyroid function.
 
Jade can also help to quiet the mind and promote a deep meditative state.
