Smoky lilac, a soft grey with only a faint violet cast, runs evenly through this compact nephrite jade cylinder. It is 15 mm across but just 9 mm from end to end, and its central hole lets it sit on a fine chain like a small wheel on its axle. Both ends are flat and plain. Untreated nephrite jade, cylinder 15 × 9 mm, 4.5 g. One of a kind. Chain not included.

FAQ
Nephrite or jadeite? Both are jade, and both are exceptionally tough. Nephrite is the tougher of the two, with a softer, quieter luster; jadeite is harder and glassier. Natural nephrite jade is the principal stone in every JIE JIANG piece; where a piece also carries jadeite, its product page says so. 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, so years of daily wear can leave fine surface marks. 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.
