Yellow jade is a lemon-colored stone that is formed in high heat environments like volcanoes. The distinctive yellow color is created by deposits in the stone, and can range from a pale butter color to a vivid lemon color. Consistent colorations are often created by dyes. The word 'jade' comes from a Spanish phrase, 'piedra de ijada', which means 'loin stone', as the Spanish explorers believed jade to have healing properties. These beads are smooth, round and 4mm in size.
Semi-precious stone beads are mined all over the world and then are usually cut in China. They will often be dyed or color-treated to enhance their appearance. We select the best quality semi-precious that is available, and try to avoid finishes that are not durable. It is best to assume that some semi-precious beads will fade over time.
