| Treasure of Jade || Discovering Nature's Exquisite Gems || Gemstone Curator || Professional Gemstone Wholesale | 【Characteristics of African Jade】 African jade is a type of quartzite jade, belonging to the same family as crystal and agate. It has a Mohs hardness of 7-7.5 and a density of 2.75 g/cm³. Its refractive index is between 1.54 and 1.55. The mineral composition of African jade consists primarily of quartz, with muscovite as the green mineral, appearing in prismatic or scaly aggregates. Pyrite is present as metallic luster minerals, and hematite as orange-yellow to reddish-brown impurities. The appearance of African jade is remarkably similar to high-quality jadeite. It possesses characteristics like "glassy" (玻璃種) and "misty floral" (冰飄花) patterns, with a fine luster. Due to its striking resemblance to jadeite in color, yet priced significantly lower—often tens to hundreds of times less than comparable quality jadeite—it is also known in the market as a "jadeite alternative." The value of African jade varies based on its internal structure and color purity, with pieces exhibiting vibrant colors and minimal impurities being more sought after. 【Jade Bracelets】 Jade bracelets are unique adornments for women, serving as talismans for peace and good fortune. Beyond their protective qualities, wearing a jade bracelet lends an air of elegant temperament and depth to a woman, making it a timeless and perpetually chic accessory. 【Jade Bracelet Care】 "People nurture jade, and jade nurtures people." Prolonged wear of a jade bracelet is the best form of maintenance and also reduces the risk of dropping it when putting it on or taking it off. When wearing a jade bracelet, avoid contact with hard objects, especially those with minor cracks, to minimize the chance of breakage or damage. For daily care, gently wipe the bracelet with a soft cloth to maintain its luster and beauty. 【Quality Assurance】 All jade sold in our shop is natural and untreated. Natural jade may contain inclusions such as cotton, mineral specks, black spots, and natural stone lines, all of which are normal phenomena. 【Care Reminders】 African jade, being a quartzite jade, has a high hardness of 7.0-7.5 but a lower density than jadeite. Its lower density means it requires careful wear to avoid collisions that could lead to cracks. When storing, place it in a dedicated jewelry box or wrap it in a soft cloth to prevent gemstones from bumping into each other. Avoid exposing jewelry with metal inlays to high temperatures or highly acidic environments (e.g., hot springs). If soiled, use a soft-bristled toothbrush with a mild detergent to gently scrub and clean. 【Notes】 All product photos are taken to closely represent the texture and color of the actual item.
