Rich, velvety, and steeped in centuries of tradition, Black Nephrite Jade embodies quiet power and timeless presence. Unlike its green cousins, Black Nephrite carries an aura of mystery—its deep, inky tones often appearing dark green to jet black depending on the light and polish.
One of two true jades (the other being jadeite), nephrite is revered across cultures for its symbolic connection to protection, wisdom, and longevity. In particular, black varieties have been prized for their grounding energy and meditative quality—offering a sense of inner calm and resilience.
Sourced from regions like Canada, New Zealand, Russia, and California, Black Nephrite Jade is valued not just for its beauty, but for its incredible toughness. Though it ranks 6–6.5 on the Mohs scale, it is among the most durable natural gemstones, making it an excellent choice for everyday jewelry with meaning.
