The Chinese call Jade The Stone Of Heaven. They have treasured Jade beyond any other stone. The Chinese have centered their culture around Jade. Since Jade is a very hard stone (6.0-7.5) they found that it was good for making tools like ax heads and other hammering and cutting tools, since the only other choices were rocks and wood (metals were unknown at this time).

　　Jade, or Jadeite, to be precise, has long been revered by Asians as the symbol of good luck, good health, happiness, longevity, peace, wealth and power to resist evil spirits.

　　The Chinese are the worlds greatest Jade carvers, and have been for the past 4000 years. They are the most skilled of all the peoples on the Asian continent. They cut and carve this stone today for the worlds markets. Jade from Burma (Burmese Jade) is often brought into China to be carved and sold there. Besides Chinese Jade (Jadeite) , Burmese Jade (Jadeite) has been carved in China for many, many years. The best quality Jade (Jadeite) is from Northern China and Burma (Burmese Jade).

　　True Jadeite is found in Burma (Burmese jade), China, Guatemala, Russia, Japan, Hawaii, and Switzerland. The Jadeite is then cut and carved in many of the Asian countries like Burma, Thailand, and China and then sold. Jadeite from Burma (Burmese Jade) was not introduced into the Chinese market before the late 1800s Jadeite occurs in many different colors (greens, lavenders, yellows and oranges, white and reds and comes in many different translucent qualities.
