Rare Mawsitsit Jade cab!
This unique and very rare Maw Sit Sit Jade is a real catch.
Maw-Sit-Sit is a particularly rare variety of Jade. It is a rare green gemstone that has dark-green to black veining; it sometimes has white spots. This stone is found in Maw-sit-sit, Myanmar (Burma), and is often found near jadeite (in fact jadeite is a component), but maw-sit-sit is not actually a type of jade. Maw-sit–sit was first identified in 1963 by the Swiss Gemologist Eduard Gubelin; the local called the stone maw-sit-sit and the name was retained. Although the exact composition is still unknown, Maw-sit-sit is composed of chromite, ureyite, chrome jadeite, symplektite, chrome amphibole, and other lighter
minerals.
Folklore, Legend, and Healing Properties:
Ancient people thought that wearing Maw-sit-sit would increase body strength and add longevity. It is an ancient symbol of love and virtue as well as a status symbol. It was also thought to preserve the body after death and can be found in emperors' tombs from thousands of years ago.
Necklace is paired with sterling silver bali beads and aventurine.
