    Malay Jade Amethyst (Dyed Quartzite) 8mm Round Beads (~50pce Strand) - 40cm/16'" Strand.

    Malay Jade is a dyed Quartzite and not in fact a true Jade at all. Quartzite is a very hard stone and similar in looks to marble, however unlike marble quartzite will not scratch with a knife. Quartzite is formed through the alteration of the composition of quartz-rich sandstones.
