Care & wearing
Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wearing. Store apart from harder stones (diamond, sapphire, quartz) that can scratch the polish, and away from perfume and hairspray. Knotted bracelets are restrung every few years of daily wear.

FAQ
Nephrite or jadeite? Both are jade. Nephrite is the tougher, finer-grained of the two, with a softer, waxier polish; jadeite is harder and glassier. Every JIE JIANG piece is natural nephrite jade — the species is written on the tag, and for high-value pieces a GIA identification report is available on request.
Does it change with wear? Physically, a little: nephrite is very tough but not scratch-proof, and over years of daily wear the polish takes on a softer sheen where it meets the skin. It does not fade or change colour.
Water and sweat? Fine for hand-washing and rain. Take it off for pools, hot tubs and sport: chlorine and sweat wear on silk thread and metal findings rather than on the stone. Dry it before storing.
