Description

Pair of Nephrite Cut Stones. Nephrite is a tough, fibrous variety of Jade prized by the Ancient Chinese and the Māori for its durability and shades of deep green, white, and black. Nephrite was often used not only in tools and cutting implements, but in ornaments, jewelry, and spiritual items. One stone is cut into a square shape, and the other is cut into an octagon.
