When found as a mineral, Jade is classified as either Jadeite or Nephrite. Despite being nearly identical, these stones have slightly different crystal compositions.

Jadeite tends to be slightly more expensive than nephrite, as it is considered to be less common.

Both Nephrite and Jadeite are highly durable gemstones, but Jadeite stands out for its exceptional toughness and resistance to breakage, making it a sought-after and valuable choice for jewelry.

Nephrite is generally only found in varying shades of green and white, while Jadeite is the type of jade that presents in a wide range of colors, ranging from blue and red to black, brown and yellow.
