When evaluating a gemstone like this, understanding its hardness is essential to assessing its durability. Jade, specifically nephrite and jadeite varieties, sits at 6 to 7 on the Mohs scale of hardness. This range indicates a good level of scratch resistance, ensuring the stone retains its beauty over time even with regular handling or wear. The hardness of this jade makes it suitable for both ornamental purposes and more functional applications, preserving its luster and intricate carvings that are evident in the carving cut chosen for this piece.
Carving cut is a technique that requires seasoned craftsmanship, accentuating the particular hues and styles inherent to this jade. The stone boasts a medium light color intensity, enabling a subtle yet captivating display of its natural pigmentation. The variety of colors spanning this jade is reminiscent of a vibrant tapestry, suggesting underlying tones that are pale yet richly dispersed. Skilled artisans reveal these colors through an excellent polish that maximizes the stone's innate translucency. This meticulous approach to finishing showcases the artisan's prowess as each facet interplays with light to bring out the inner radiance of the jade.
The clarity of this jade is graded as very slightly included when assessed at eye level, signifying minimal inclusions that are not immediately apparent to the untrained eye. This level of clarity enhances the stone's overall appeal, preserving its lustrous surface and vivid appearance. The inclusion of slight imperfections infuses the gemstone with personality and authenticity, distinguishing it from stones that seek to emulate perfection artificially. At The Natural Gemstone Company, the emphasis on clarity matched with color creates a harmonious composition that opulence seekers will genuinely appreciate.
