However, jadeite can occur in various shades of green, including light green, apple green, and dark green
It can also display other colors such as lavender, white, yellow, and even black.

The finest jadeite also exhibits a smooth and glassy texture.
Jadeite has a rich cultural heritage and holds great significance in many cultures, particularly in East Asia.

Jadeite is primarily used in jewelry, including rings, earrings, bracelets, and pendants.
