Jade Worry Stone

Jade Worry Stone is a crystal (shop SKU HO527) on the shelves at Namaste Bookshop in Manhattan.

Jade in jewelry and carving may be nephrite or jadeite, both tough, fine-grained stones long prized in many cultures. In Chinese and other traditions, jade is associated with harmony, virtue, and protection. Those ideas belong to folklore and personal practice, not to any medical claim.

Natural stones vary in color, clarity, and shape, so the piece you receive will have its own character even when the weight, grade, or size is listed.

• SKU: HO527
