Icy Floating Green African Serpentine Round Bangle 2561 #17.1

| Treasure of Jade | Seeking Nature's Beautiful Gems | Jewel Courier | Professional Jewelry Wholesale | 【Characteristics of African Serpentine】 African serpentine is a type of quartzinite 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 ranges between 1.54 and 1.55. The mineral composition of African serpentine consists of quartz, with the green mineral being muscovite. Muscovite appears in aggregates of columnar and flaky forms. The metallic luster mineral is pyrite, and the orange-yellow to reddish-brown impurity mineral is hematite. The appearance of African serpentine is extremely similar to high-quality jadeite. It possesses characteristics like 'glassy' texture and 'floating flower' inclusions, with a delicate luster. Because its color closely resembles jadeite, yet its price is tens to hundreds of times lower for comparable quality, it is also known in the market as a "jadeite alternative." The value of African serpentine varies depending on its internal structure and color purity. Items with vibrant colors and fewer impurities are more favored in the market. 【Jade Bangles】 Jade bangles are a distinctive accessory for women, serving as a talisman for peace and good fortune. Beyond offering protection, wearing a jade bangle enhances a woman's elegant demeanor and inner depth, making it a classic, timeless, and enduring accessory. 【Jade Bangle Care】 As the saying goes, "people nurture jade, and jade nurtures people." Long-term wear is the best form of care for a jade bangle, and it also reduces the risk of dropping it when putting it on or taking it off. When wearing a jade bangle, avoid impacts with hard objects, especially if it has minor cracks, to minimize the chance of breakage or damage. For daily maintenance, use a soft cloth to wipe the bangle, keeping it lustrous and beautiful. 【Quality Assurance】 All jade sold in this store is natural and untreated. Natural jade may contain cotton, metallic minerals, black spots, and natural stone patterns, all of which are normal phenomena. 【Care Reminder】 African serpentine is a quartzinite jade with a high hardness of 7.0-7.5, but its density is lower than that of jadeite. Lower density means it requires careful handling to avoid collisions during wear, which could lead to cracks. When storing, place it in a dedicated jewelry box or wrap it in a soft cloth to prevent jewelry from bumping into each other. Avoid exposing jewelry with metal inlays to high temperatures or highly acidic environments (e.g., hot springs). If stained, use a soft-bristled toothbrush with a mild detergent for gentle cleaning. 【Notes】 All product photos are taken to be as close as possible to the actual item's texture and color.
