Alaskan Jade Jewelry

Genuine Jade (Nephrite) is a fascinating mineral and the state gem of Alaska.  In prehistoric times, prized for its toughness, jade was used to make weapons and tools and later, simple ornaments.  Jade purportedly can protect you from evil, attract love and of course bring good luck.  Now regarded as a symbol of energy and beauty, stimulating creativity and mental agility along with harmony and balance.  The jade used in this collection comes from the NANA Region of Alaska.
