Beautiful Attractive Vintage Jade Rings

 Jade is a precious stone that is used in a variety of jewellery and ornaments. It has a long history of cultural significance in many civilisations. It is a relatively hard mineral stone with great variations in colour which makes it a very popular ornamental stone and is highly regarded in the Asian cultures as having spiritual and mystical properties.

Jade is found as one of the two mineral varieties i.e. the jadeite and the nephrite both of which are used for ornamental purposes like making jade rings, pendants, bracelets, necklaces etc. While jadeite is harder than the nephrite, it is found only in Burma and nephrite is more widely distributed geographically. The jade stone is not just an ornamental stone in the Chinese culture and many great stories can be found in the Chinese ancient folklore which dates back to Confucius and the symbolism associated with jade is very deeply rooted. It is then that jade was treated as a special stone and used to make a variety of weapons, jewellery articles, good luck charms etc. Jade is thought to represent the various qualities in a person which make him spiritually and morally complete. It symbolizes righteousness, honesty, truth, transparency and purity of soul which is why it is known as the stone of heaven. It also denotes wealth of spirit and is considered as a harbinger of luck and fortune. A large variety of articles made from Jade are available in all shapes, designs, and colours. However, jade rings hold a special place as compared to all the jewellery made from jade because of the strong symbolic ties associated with jade rings as they have been worn for thousands of years. Early people used them as wedding rings because of the jade's connection with love and they were considered highly auspicious and were thought to bring good luck to the newly married couple. They are also worn as a mark of status in various cultures as they also denote wealth and power. Jade rings are available in such a vast variety of colours and designs that one is spoilt for choice.

However, the green vintage jade rings are the most popular and common because they are considered to be linked to intuition, ability, and happiness and also as a token of thanks. In fact, some rings are believed to possess healing properties both for the soul and the body and are worn to prevent or treat diseases or to simply ensure good health. However, one must be careful while selecting the proper jade ring because it can be quite an investment so one must make sure that the jade used is pure and of top quality so that one can feel the sublime charm of jade jewellery.
