The term "jade" and the Chinese term "yu" are often used to designate a variety of stones and glossy materials. Their use should, however, be limited to jadeite and nephrite. Nephrite belongs to the amphibole group of minerals and is a silicate of calcium and magnesium. Its crystalline structure has the appearance of hair-like fibers felted together to form a closely integrated mass, and it is this which gives it its strength. Nephrite ranks as 6.5 on the Moh scale of hardness. Nephrite has been worked in China since the Neolithic period. Much of the nephrite used in China came from Khotan and Yarkand in Central Asia.
Kwan Yin Buddha , Chinese Godess of Compassion and Mercy. Originated in India as Avalokitesvara, the mortal Buddha (Bodhisattva) of Compassion. Also called Guanshiyin where Guan means "Contemplate", shi means "world" and yin means "sounds" the name thus means "Contemplating the Sounds of the World".
