Jade Necklace

All over the world, gems like diamonds, and ruby have always been considered as the symbol of love, purity, and rank. However, in China instead of diamonds and other precious gems, jade was the most treasured stone and it rose to prominence in the Shang Dynasty in the form of jewelry. Although the process of mining jade in China had been practiced even before that. Except for jewelry jade was used for various purposes such as carving accessories, and weapons. Jade was a national treasure in China.

It started becoming so so popular that around 3,000 BC it was given a new name “yu” which directly translates to the royal gem. Chinese people believed that jade was a symbol of integrity and bravery as it could be cut but never could be twisted. Jade was and still is used to make various jewelry and one of them is necklaces.
