Jade is most highly valued in Chinese culture today. The philosopher Confucius reportedly expressed this fascination by making jade a metaphor for virtue, kindness, wisdom, justice, civility, music, sincerity, truth, Heaven and Earth.
Nephrite Jade has long been associated with imperial courts and the stone was so highly valued that Confucius ascribed to it 11 virtues (benevolence, intelligence, righteousness, propriety, music, loyalty, good faith, heaven, earth, virtue, and the path of truth and duty).
These beautiful 4 sided standing crystals are polished and measure approximately 7.5 cm tall x 2 c x 2 cm square at the base.
