For centuries, Jade was thought to be a single gemstone, but in 1863 two types were recognized: Jadeite and Nephrite. Nephrite is more common, but both types of Jade are tough, fine-grained rocks, suitable for carving. Jade is known as the "dream stone" and a "stone of fidelity". Jade brings realization to ones potential and devotion to ones purpose and is the symbol of tranquillity and wisdom. Jade is said to possess yang (the vital masculine principal) and in China, it was believed to impart immortality. When worn as amulet jewelry, Jade prevents nightmares, heals many diseases, and prolongs life. Jade is also said to promote peace and confidence. It opens the qualities of mercy and compassion for all sentient beings, inspires awareness of the oneness of all that lives. Jade is best known for it’s ability to open and heal the heart; freeing one from anger, selfishness, and greed. Jade also encourages service to others and the planet. In Buddhism, Jade is known to help bodhisattvas and those on the path of enlightenment and stimulates the energy of Kwan Yin (the goddess of Compassion). Jade soothes the emotions, heals the hips and kidneys, and aids movement on one's life path.

Silver can be used as a mirror to the soul and help you see yourself from the outside without judgement. It is used often with gemstones because it’s able to both attract and retain those qualities that are emitted by the stone and provides a steadying influence for the jewel.
