African Verdite Bangle 2642 #17.2

| Verdite Treasure || Seeking Nature's Exquisite Gems || Gemstone Curator || Professional Wholesale Jewelry | [Characteristics of African Verdite] African Verdite is a type of quartzinite jade, belonging to the same family as crystal and agate. It has a Mohs hardness of 7-7.5 and a density of 2.75 g/cm³. Its refractive index ranges between 1.54 and 1.55. The mineral composition of African Verdite consists primarily of quartz, with white mica forming the green mineral. White mica appears in columnar or flaky aggregates. Pyrite is the metallic luster mineral, and hematite forms the orange-yellow to reddish-brown impurities. African Verdite's appearance is remarkably similar to high-quality jadeite. It possesses characteristics like "glass-like" texture and "icy floating flowers" with a fine luster. Due to its striking resemblance in color to jadeite, yet priced tens to hundreds of times lower than jadeite of comparable quality, it is also known in the market as a "jadeite alternative." The value of African Verdite varies based on its internal structure and color purity; pieces with vibrant colors and fewer impurities are more sought after in the market. [Jade Bangles] Jade bangles are unique accessories for women, serving as talismans for peace and good fortune. Beyond ensuring safety, wearing a jade bangle enhances a woman's elegance and depth, making it a classic, timeless, and enduring accessory. [Jade Bangle Care] "People nurture jade, jade nurtures people." Wearing a jade bangle on your wrist for extended periods is the best form of care and also reduces the risk of dropping it when putting it on or taking it off. When wearing a jade bangle, avoid impact with hard objects, especially those with minor cracks, to minimize the chance of breakage or damage. For daily maintenance, wipe the bangle with a soft cloth to keep it lustrous and beautiful. [Quality Assurance] All jade sold in our store is natural and untreated. Natural jade may contain cotton, metallic mineral inclusions, black spots, and natural stone lines, which are all normal occurrences. [Care Reminders] African Verdite, being a quartzinite jade, has a high hardness of 7.0-7.5, but its density is lower than that of jadeite. Lower density means it requires careful handling to avoid collisions during wear, preventing cracks. When storing, place it in a dedicated jewelry box or wrap it in a soft cloth to prevent jewelry from colliding with each other. Avoid exposing metal-inlaid jewelry to high temperatures or highly acidic environments (e.g., hot springs). If stained, use a soft toothbrush with a mild detergent to gently brush and clean.
