Malay Jade Purple (Dyed Quartzite) 10mm Round Beads (~38 pce Strand) - 38 cm /15" Strand Approximate.

Malay Jade is a dyed Quartzite and not in fact a true Jade at all. Quartzite is a very hard stone and similar in looks to marble, however unlike marble quartzite will not scratch with a knife. Quartzite is formed through the alteration of the composition of quartz-rich sandstones.
