Jade: The Stone of Prosperity & Harmony

Jade is a treasured gemstone admired for its beautiful shades of green, white, lavender, yellow, black, and occasionally orange or reddish-brown. Known for its smooth appearance, remarkable toughness, and timeless beauty, Jade has been valued for thousands of years in jewelry, carvings, ceremonial objects, and decorative art.

Often called the “Stone of Prosperity,” Jade is associated in traditional and contemporary metaphysical practices with good fortune, abundance, wisdom, protection, emotional balance, harmony, and personal growth.

History & Lore

Jade has been cherished for thousands of years, particularly in China, Mesoamerica, and New Zealand.

In ancient China, Jade symbolized virtue, wisdom, purity, prosperity, and protection. It was used to create ceremonial objects, jewelry, carvings, and treasured decorative pieces.

In Mesoamerican civilizations, including the Maya, Jade held great cultural and spiritual significance and was associated with life, fertility, status, and sacred traditions.

Among the Māori people of New Zealand, Pounamu (greenstone) holds deep cultural importance and is traditionally used for meaningful carvings, ornaments, and treasured heirlooms.

Throughout history, Jade has represented longevity, harmony, good fortune, and spiritual wisdom, making it one of the world's most culturally significant gemstones.
