The term jade refers to two distinct metamorphic rocks composed of different silicate minerals, jadeite and nephrite. With different chemical compositions, hardness and density levels and different crystal structures, jadeite and nephrite jade were considered the same mineral until 1863. The term jade derives from the Spanish “Piedra de Ijada” a phrase that means “stone for pain in the side” and comes from the Spanish conquistadors who, upon seeing the Central American natives holding pieces of jade on their sides, believed that it cured ailments in this area of the body. The word <\/span>Jade<\/span><\/i> comes to us through the French who discovered the term in the 17th century and decided to call it \u201cejade\u201d inspired by the Spanish term which in turn derived into<\/span> jade<\/span><\/i> over the years. The name “nephrite” derives from the Greek “\u03bd\u03b5\u03c6\u03c1\u03bf\u03c2” (nephros) kidney and “\u03bb\u03b9\u03b8\u03bf\u03c2” (lithos) and therefore translates “kidney stone” as it was believed to possess healing properties on this organ. <\/span><\/p>\n

Jade is one of the gemstones with the longest history, one that dates back more than 7,000 years and has been especially appreciated in the Chinese and Mesoamerican cultures where it was valued even more than gold. Traditional Chinese jade generally refers to nephrite as there are no jadeite deposits in China and although today green nephrite is considered the most valuable translucent white nephrite was considered more valuable until the introduction of “imperial” jadeite jade from Burma in the 18th century. With jadeite deposits in the current territory of Guatemala, Mesoamerican cultures elaborated ritual and jewelry pieces in jadeite, the most famous being the funerary mask of King Pacal. <\/span><\/p>\n
