|Jade Boots Treasure∥Seeking Nature's Beautiful Gems∥Jewelry Carriers∥Professional Jewelry Wholesaler| 【Characteristics of African Serpentine】 African serpentine is a type of quartz 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 serpentine consists of quartz, with muscovite as the green mineral. Muscovite exists as prismatic, scaly aggregates. Pyrite is the metallic luster mineral, and hematite is the orange-yellow to reddish-brown impurity mineral. The appearance of African serpentine is extremely similar to high-quality jadeite, possessing characteristics like "glassy" texture and "floating flower" patterns with a delicate luster. Because its color closely resembles jadeite, yet its price is tens to hundreds of times lower than jadeite of comparable quality, it is also known in the market as a "jadeite alternative." The value of African serpentine varies based on its internal structure and color purity, with items featuring vibrant colors and fewer impurities being more sought after. 【Jade Bangles】 Jade bangles are unique accessories for women, serving as talismans for peace and good fortune. Beyond their protective qualities, wearing a jade bangle enhances a woman's elegance and depth, making it a classic and timeless essential accessory. 【Jade Bangle Care】 "The wearer nourishes the jade, and the jade nourishes the wearer." Wearing a jade bangle on the wrist for extended periods 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 bangle, avoid impact with hard objects, especially those with minor cracks, to minimize the chance of breakage or damage. For daily care, a soft cloth can be used to wipe the bangle, maintaining its luster and beauty. 【Quality Assurance】 All jade sold in our store is natural and untreated. Natural jade may contain cotton inclusions, metallic mineral spots, black spots, and natural stone lines, all of which are normal phenomena. 【Care Reminder】 African serpentine is a type of quartz jade with a high hardness of 7.0-7.5 but a lower density than jadeite. Its lower density means it requires careful handling to avoid collisions during wear, preventing cracks. When storing, place it in a dedicated jewelry box or wrap it in a soft cloth to prevent pieces from colliding with each other. Avoid exposing jewelry with metal inlays to high temperatures or highly acidic environments (e.g., hot springs). If soiled, a soft-bristled toothbrush with a mild detergent can be used for gentle cleaning. 【Notes】 All product photos are taken to closely represent the color and texture of the actual item.
