Semi Precious Stone Jade Earring

Jade EarringJade is a name that was applied to decorative stones that were being brought to Europe from China and Central America. It wasn't until 1864 that it was realized that Jade was being applied to two dissimilar minerals. The two minerals are both beautiful for the purposes that jade is put to task and are hard to differentiate from each other. So what to do? Leave it alone and call them both Jade!

Healing ability: Jade is said to be of use in the treatment of asthma, heart harms, larynx, liver, thyroid, spleen, and also thymus. It's also thought to make stronger the body and increase longevity. Taken in a drink, it is supposed to strengthen the muscles, harden the bones, calm the mind, and cleanse the blood. It is believed to bring its wearer good luck, peace, harmony, tranquility, fertility, serenity, practicality, moderation, stability, and also perspective. Tougher than granite and more hard to carve than steel, Jade is one of the toughest minerals known to man, and was used by Mayans in Central America to make weapons, utensils and also good ornaments.
