History & Lore

For centuries, Jade has been thought to bring good fortune. Cultures all over the world believe that Jade represents a wealth of virtues, including happiness, courage, purity, longevity, and wisdom. The ancient Chinese belief that Jade protected against death and decay led to the creation of Jade burial suits. These sites were composed of thousands of Jade tiles connected by wire to encase the bodies of royal members of a dynasty before being placed in their tombs. 

In China, it is also believed that wearing Jade acts as a protective shield against many kinds of misfortune. Jade, the Chinese advise, should be worn and never tucked away in a box, lest it turn white and die. If your Jade becomes chipped, it is believed to have absorbed an attack in your stead. In the same vein, if your Jade becomes cloudy or dull, it is thought to have absorbed negative energy meant for you.
