This is a magatama (comma-shaped bead) made from natural Itoigawa jade from the Kon-Sawa area. 【Approximate Size】 Length: 37mm x Width: 21mm x Thickness: 10mm Weight: 16.3g Itoigawa jade is the national stone of Japan, and its mining is now prohibited. Among them, raw stones with particularly beautiful colors and patterns are highly rare and traded at high prices, with retail prices sometimes reaching as high as 10,000 yen per gram. This magatama is offered at an exceptional price by eliminating all intermediary costs and margins. This magatama is carefully crafted by skilled artisans who have selected beautiful raw stones. The color and pattern of jade vary depending on the geological conditions and the minerals contained, making each piece a unique power stone in the world. It also has a distinctive texture compared to other stones and is characterized by its excellent healing power. There is an old Chinese saying, "Jade nurtures people, and people nurture jade." We hope you will enjoy the process of the jade becoming more beautiful while receiving its power and healing by wearing it. (The color and transparency will gradually change, and a deeper flavor will emerge over time.) This is a masterpiece that recreates the shape of the magatama, which has been treasured as a sacred item since ancient times, allowing you to feel the breath of ancient culture, and we believe you will enjoy it for a long time. Please note that although it has been carefully polished, there may be scratches or cracks on the surface or inside due to the natural stone. Also, the color may appear different depending on the lighting conditions. Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned. #Jade #PowerStone #Healing #jade #Magatama #JomonPeriod #Ruins #ExcavatedItems #Itoigawa #ItoigawaJade Color...Blue Material...Natural Stone Stone Material...Jade Motif Material...Natural Stone
