Chartreuse Jade, also known as Serpentine or Nephrite Jade, is a vibrant, translucent green stone resembling the hue of chartreuse. It originates geologically from metamorphic rocks formed through the alteration of ultramafic rocks like peridotite and serpentinite, typically found in regions with tectonic activity. Chemically, it is primarily composed of hydrated magnesium iron silicate, with variations in its composition giving rise to different shades of green.
Commercially, Chartreuse Jade is mined in regions including China, Myanmar, Russia, and the United States (California). Its striking color and cultural significance continue to make it a popular choice for jewelry, talismans, and decorative artworks worldwide.
