Iv bought this and seller said its handmade chinesse. But he said jade he did not specify which jade. So maybe someone can recognize it? I cannot even say is it real. seller says it is.
In att i send two pics one is to see color in cloudy weather, other backlite with moby in daylight. and maybe some overall opinion since i dunno to much about jade except it needs to be green and transparent )…

Hello All … These are floating around on the ebay and are machine cut. It is not dense enough to be Jadeite or Nephrite jade with your SG measurement of 2.6 … Lots of fake jades out there are Serpentine!! I have a white serpentine pendant that looks just like White Nephrite (Mutton Fat Jade). My white serpentine fluoresces medium intensity light greenish white under UV-LW and is inert under UV-SW. White Nephrite should be inert under UV Long and Short. I have an IR Spectrometer in my lab where I can also see and Identify polymer impregnation, dyes, and evidence of bleaching. You have to IR test your jades to know for sure if they are treated or not. I enjoyed the posting and responses on this topic.
