Lavender Jade 12MM Beaded Bracelet

🔮 All colors of Jade can be attractive. But jadeite's most desirable color is, in fact, a very specific shade of green. The finest-quality jadeite—almost transparent with a vibrant emerald-green color—is known as “Imperial jade.” ... Lavender is the next most valuable color.

According to the articles in Forbes, the demand for jade among China's newly rich "appears to have reached a frenzy in the past year or two." The price of the finest jade has increased tenfold over the past decade, to $3000 an ounce, making it far more valuable than gold. Sep 30, 2010
