White jade is the main variety of nephrite jade, which has a delicate and compact texture and strong toughness. White jade is from 6 to 6.5 on the MOHS Hardness Scale, whose abrasion resistance is the strongest among jade. According to the hues, the colour of white jade can be subdivided into many kinds. The colour of high-quality white jade is creamy white, with slightly light cyan and pale yellow, which has a delicate texture and soft lustre, and may contain a small number of impurities.
White jade conforms to the implicit aesthetic concept, not publicity, gorgeous, or dazzling. It is so lustrous and moist that is a kind of beauty with ‘transparency inside’. There is a mysterious charm in the beauty of suet white jade.
In Chinese folklore, wearing jade can play a role of decoration and achieve fitness effects. Jade symbolizes the ‘Ren, Yi, Zhi, Yong, Jie’① of the gentleman's character, and also expresses the secular feelings of "favorableness, longevity, peace and good fortune".
