What is green nephrite jade good for?

In traditional crystal practice, green nephrite jade is most commonly worked with for love, heart healing, and compassion. It's not medicine, and no stone will fix anything on its own. Think of it as a physical cue for a practice you're already building. The stone holds the attention, the practice does the work.

Where does your green nephrite jade come from?

Every piece of green nephrite jade in the catalog has its country of origin noted on the product page. Where we can name the region or the mine, we do. If we can't verify it, we say so rather than guess.

How do I know your green nephrite jade is real and not dyed?

Every piece of green nephrite jade we sell is hand-graded and checked against known treatment patterns before it's listed. If a stone has been dyed, heated, irradiated, or coated in any way, we disclose it on the product page. Our sourcing goes through the Beyond Ethical supply network, which means we know who handled the rough before us. No mystery lots, no filler, no dyed stones passed off as natural.

How do I cleanse and care for green nephrite jade?

Most people cleanse green nephrite jade with sound (a bell or a singing bowl), smoke (sage, palo santo, cedar), moonlight overnight, or by placing it on a piece of selenite. Green Nephrite Jade is moderately soft at 6.5 on the Mohs scale, so short water rinses are fine but avoid long soaks. How often is up to you. A weekly reset is a common rhythm, but there's no rule. The practice matters more than the schedule.

Jade family (serpentine/nephrite group)Lima, PeruTreatment: Mostly natural

"Jade" is a commercial term covering two mineralogically distinct minerals: nephrite (a tremolite-actinolite amphibole) and jadeite (a pyroxene), along with several regional serpentine-based stones also sold as "green jade." Peruvian green jade, our primary source, comes from Lima Province and is typically serpentine-based or tremolite-rich, traded in the crystal market as green jade for its color and traditional heart-chakra association. The material is relatively durable (Mohs 5 to 6.5 depending on variety) and is almost always sold untreated. The broader jade market has significant treatment and substitution issues, especially in jadeite. Serpentine-based green jade from Peru is generally cleaner in this regard.
