Jade is actually two separate ornamental gems: nephrite and jadeite. It is mostly known for its green coloring, but also appears naturally in other colors such as yellow and white. Qualities that increase its value are semi-transparent clarity and fine texture. Jade is generally sold by the piece rather than by weight and of the two jades, jadeite is more valuable than nephrite. Jade has been used since the earliest of times in jewelry, ornaments, sculptures and tools.
