BLACK JADE NEPHRITE SLAB 2
Good Black Jade Nephrite Slab. Polishes to a very high luster, which is perfect for creating stunning quality Black Jade mirror finish jewellery and pendants. This material will polish to a stunning black luster. Nephrite Jade is the toughest of all naturally occurring materials. Nephrite Jade has been used from ancient times as jewellery, tools and weapons. This particular Slab is Top grade and the blackest of black jade – basically the best you can get. I believe it was mined in the 1970’s from Cowell.
