<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 404929, member: 2844&quot;]When it comes to the desirability of true jade, it depends on what you are looking for. The following is a generalization, but it gives you an idea:</p><p>Collectors of antique Chinese jade prefer nephrite, especially mutton fat jade. Nephrite is the &#039;Old School&#039; jade, of Chinese scholars and emperors.</p><p>The Chinese merchant class, which emerged during the Qing dynasty, prefered Imperial green jadeite jade or the very bright jadeite colours, even if dyed. That kind of jadeite was, and still is, mostly sourced in Burma/Myanmar.</p><p>Collectors of Art Deco jewellery prefer bright green jadeite or apple jade, which looks stunning with black onyx or diamonds.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
