In ancient China, the best Hetian jade was only used by the imperial palace, so Hetian jade had a high status. Hetian jade, also known as nephrite, jade jadeite. The hardness of Hetian jade is smaller than jadeite, but the toughness is more elevated than jadeite. Hetian jade has famous mutton fat jade, hetian topaz, ink jade, sugar jade, smoke green, and ink.

Jadeite is only produced in Myanmar, also known as “Myanmar jade”; it mainly has pyroxene minerals composed of fibrous aggregates. The colors are vibrant; the colors are very bright. The price of much high-grade jewelry made of jade is very high, but the price does not affect people’s vigorous pursuit of jade jewelry. Jade is richer in color
