Natural Jasper Jade Jasper jade is one of the two officially recognized types of jade in gemology and a variety of Hetian jade. It presents a spinach-green hue and belongs to nephrite. Jasper jade possesses a fine texture, smooth and lustrous with an almost oily feel. The renowned "Taiwan Jade," once internationally acclaimed, is a type of jasper jade. Historical records trace the use of Taiwan jade for adornments back to the prehistoric Neolithic era, with unearthed artifacts considered national treasures by the National Museum of Prehistory in Taiwan. Its mineral composition is primarily tremolite-actinolite, a silicate of calcium, magnesium, and iron, with a Mohs hardness of 6 to 6.5. Jasper jade has been cherished since antiquity, gaining prominence among royalty and the aristocracy as early as the Qing Dynasty, where it was regarded as a precious item.
