Feeling Jaded
Jade, a gemstone most commonly found in shades of green, can be traced back to ancient China as far back as 5000 BC. Jade was referred to as “The Stone of Heaven” because it was thought of as a link between the physical and spiritual worlds. Besides its toughness, the smoothness of the stone and the broad range of colors made it very attractive to early artisans and artists. The basic Jade color is white and has a colorless opaqueness. Only inclusions of different metals give it the most beautiful colors.
According to the Chinese mythology the Jade is the dry sperm of dragon and for the Maya’s Jade was the stone of creation.
Jade as a gemstone and color is relevant again. These shades of green can be easily incorporated into any natural and classic color design concept and help to create a fresh look and spirit.
