Nephrite is the traditional jade of China, New Zealand (where Māori call it \u003cem\u003epounamu\u003c\/em\u003e and regard it as a treasure), and many Pacific cultures. Jadeite is the more prized variety in East Asia and was the principal jade of Mesoamerica. Both are dense, hard, and work-resistant, which contributed to their high value in cultures that lacked metal tools for carving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eArchaeological evidence of jade use in China dates to approximately 7000 BCE; by the Neolithic period, jade was already the most important material in Chinese ceremonial life. The nephrite deposits of Hetian (Khotan) in present-day Xinjiang were among the most significant jade sources for Chinese civilization; the Silk Road carried both raw jade and carved jade objects across Central Asia. In Mesoamerica, jadeite deposits in Guatemala were mined by Olmec civilization as early as 1000 BCE and traded throughout the Maya, Zapotec, and Aztec worlds as a material more sacred and more valuable than gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIn New Zealand, \u003cem\u003epounamu\u003c\/em\u003e (greenstone\/jade) is a taonga (treasure) with deep cultural and spiritual significance for Māori: carved into pendants (\u003cem\u003ehei-tiki\u003c\/em\u003e), weapons, and tools, it was accumulated as a form of wealth and given as a mark of deep relationship and esteem.

For millennia the stone has been carved, treasured, buried with emperors, and held up as the mineral image of virtue; Confucius himself is recorded comparing jade's qualities to benevolence, wisdom, and integrity. That heritage, not any Western table, is why a green bead bracelet reads as more than jewelry. The Western tradition echoes it, with Cunningham filing jade among the stones of love, protection, and prosperity, though we leave the correspondence fields respectfully blank here, since pinning sourced entries on a stone of unverified identity would be exactly the kind of quiet fib we avoid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorn with intention, the bracelet works the way worn stones always have: a daily, physical reminder of the quality you are cultivating.
