What is Natural Type A Jade?

Natural Type A jadeite refers to jade that has not been chemically treated, dyed, or resin impregnated. It retains its natural colour, translucency, and mineral structure, making it the most authentic and traditionally valued form of jade.

What is the difference between jadeite and nephrite?

Jadeite and nephrite are two different minerals commonly referred to as jade. Jadeite is rarer, often more translucent, and generally more valuable than nephrite. Most fine jade jewellery, including jade bangles and pendants, is made from jadeite.

Why is jade valuable?

The value of jade depends on several factors including colour, translucency, texture, and craftsmanship. Rich colours such as imperial green, fine mineral texture, and higher translucency usually increase the desirability of jadeite.

Where can I buy natural jade in Singapore?

Natural jadeite jewellery can be purchased from reputable jade specialists who understand jade quality and authenticity. Nanyang Jade in Singapore offers carefully selected jade bangles, pendants, rings, and earrings chosen for colour, translucency, and natural texture.

How can I tell if jade is real?

Authentic jadeite often shows natural colour variations, fine texture, and gentle translucency. Certification from a reputable gemological laboratory is the most reliable way to confirm the authenticity of jade.

Why are jade bangles popular?

Jade bangles are treasured for their elegant design and cultural symbolism. In many traditions, jade bangles represent harmony, protection, and prosperity, and are often passed down as meaningful heirlooms.

What colours does jadeite come in?

Jadeite can appear in many colours including green, lavender, icy white, yellow, black, and multi-colour combinations. Each colour results from natural mineral variations within the jadeite crystal structure.

How should jade jewellery be cared for?

Jade jewellery can be cleaned with mild soap and water and wiped with a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and store jade separately from harder gemstones to maintain its natural luster.

Natural Character of the Jade

This translucent whitish peach Pixiu jadeite pendant reveals the natural beauty of jadeite through gentle translucency and organic colour variation. The body of the pendant appears soft and smooth, while light subtly passes through the jade structure. Because of this natural translucency, the stone displays depth rather than appearing opaque.

At the top of the pendant, the Pixiu carving emerges with brighter green jade tones. This contrast gives the piece a lively presence while still maintaining the calm elegance often associated with jade.

Colour Description

The jadeite displays a graceful combination of colours formed naturally within the stone.

Visible tones include:

soft translucent whitish peach base
delicate pale green undertones
vivid emerald green highlights around the Pixiu carving

Because jade forms under complex geological conditions, colour distribution often appears naturally uneven. Consequently, the vivid green sections create unique patterns that make each piece distinctive.

Symbolism of Pixiu

The pendant features a Pixiu, a mythical creature widely known in Chinese culture for attracting prosperity and protection. Traditionally, Pixiu is believed to guard wealth and prevent financial loss.

Therefore, Pixiu jade jewellery often represents:

prosperity and abundance
protection and guardianship
strength and resilience

Natural Type A Jadeite

This pendant is carved from Natural Type A jadeite, meaning the stone has not undergone chemical treatment or artificial colouring. The colour variations and translucency therefore reflect the jade’s natural mineral formation.
