Blue Jade Healing Properties
Blue Jade is the rarest color of Jade and deserves a place of honor in any serious mineral collection. While it can be found in two other locations, most Blue Jade is Vonsen Blue Jade from California. The mine is near San Francisco and is generally closed. Every few years, the mine is reopened and worked for a little while before reclosing. Supply is always limited, so get one while you can!
Ethically Sourced Blue Jade
Know where your crystals come from
I first met this supplier on the last day of the 2017 Denver Gem Show. I took one glance at their booth and realized that we buy from many of the same lapidaries. We also love the same size of stones and the same high quality. But while virtually every other source sells in bulk bags, this wholesaler allows me to handpick the best and leave the rest. At first, we played by the rules of the mineral industry and didn’t discuss sourcing. But I know where their crystals come from. And they know, I know. And I know, they know, I know. We’re a very knowledgeable cohort.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, this relationship deepened considerably since I was able to restock with them when it was impossible to buy from my usual suppliers in South Africa and Hong Kong. The couple invited me to visit their home and allowed me to handpick for hours. After our business was concluded, we shared a bottle of wine and talked. Nowadays, we’ve been breaking the rules of the industry – we’re talking quietly but openly about ethical sourcing.
Blue Jade Healing, Mineralogy, and History
Published January 2021 • Updated September 2022 • Read Time: 7 minutes
Blue Jade is the rarest variety of Jade and is always a Jadeite. While other colors of Jade are found in Myanmar, Blue Jade is found in only in Guatemala, Japan, and California, USA. Most of the natural Blue Jade is from the Californian deposit, known as Vonson Blue Jade. It was found by Magnus Vonsen on his ranch in the rural area directly outside of San Francisco. Vonson Blue Jade has a very distinctive shade of blue-grey that cannot be easily replicated by dyes. By contrast, most dyed Blue Jade is very vivid and bright. Blue Jade has a calm energy that encourages us to let go of petty dramas and to stay focused on the bigger picture. […]
