The psychology, symbolism and cultural history of Jade.
In East Asian cultures, jade symbolizes purity, wisdom, and tranquility, often linked to good fortune and protection. Conversely, in Western contexts, it may evoke feelings of freshness and renewal, but can also signal envy, contrasting with its positive associations in the East.
The term 'jade' derives from the Spanish 'piedra de ijada', meaning 'stone of the flank', referencing its historical use in treating ailments. In the 18th century, jade became a sought-after material in European jewelry, exemplifying wealth and status among the elite.
