Jade

What is Jade?

Jade is a tough, smooth ornamental gemstone (jadeite or nephrite) treasured across Asia, most famous in shades of green.

Jade Benefits & Meaning

Jade is a symbol of purity, luck and prosperity and has been carved and worn for thousands of years. It is valued for its calm colour and exceptional toughness.

How to Identify an Original Jade

Genuine jade has a smooth, waxy-to-glassy lustre, a cool touch and remarkable toughness, unlike dyed or glass imitations. Because imitations are common in the market, buy from a trusted seller — every stone at GemStore.pk is hand-inspected and, where applicable, lab-verifiable.

What decides the jade price

The price in Pakistan depends on colour (translucent imperial green jadeite is the most valuable), translucency, texture, size and treatment grade (A, B or C). Every listing in this collection shows the exact carat weight and price, and our gemstone price guide explains typical ranges so you can compare with confidence.

Care and cleaning

Jade is very tough; clean with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals on dyed or polymer-treated pieces.

Buying from GemStore.pk

How we verify every stone

Before a listing goes live the piece is weighed on a calibrated carat scale, examined under magnification for treatment and filling, photographed in daylight and described exactly as it is. Anything we cannot verify as natural is simply not sold. You are welcome to have any purchase independently tested — that is what lab-verifiable means.

Delivery, payment and returns

Orders are packed in a padded box and sent by tracked courier to every city in Pakistan, usually within 1–3 working days for major cities and 3–5 elsewhere. Pay the rider on delivery after checking the parcel. If the item arrives damaged or is not as described, tell us within 7 days for a replacement or a full refund — see the Return Policy.

Packaging and presentation

Loose pieces come in a sealed pouch with the carat weight on the invoice; rings and pendants arrive in a gift box. If the order is a present, tell us and we will leave the price off the packing slip. Every parcel is photographed before sealing so you can compare what left us with what arrived.

Sizes, settings and matching pieces

Most pieces are available loose or set in silver as a ring, pendant or bracelet; tell us the finger size or chain length and the setting is made to order in 3–5 working days. If you need a matched pair or a specific carat weight for an astrological prescription, send the details and we will suggest what is in stock or source it for you.
