Rare genuine non-treated Natural Maw Sit-Sit round Beads bracelet, beautiful green and dark vein. Maw sit sit is a vibrant, distinctive green and black color gem material that has been confused with jade for hundreds of years. It is much more rare than jade making it highly collectible. It has been mined out for some time making it very desirable and difficult to find now. It was first noted in the early 1960s by the famed Swiss gemologist Eduard J. Gübelin during field investigations in Burma. Maw Sit Sit, also know as Jade-Albite or Chloromelanite is a combination stone whose composition comprises of various minerals including a chromium enriched Jadeite and Albite Feldspar. It is a bright emerald green colour with black veining. It achieves its vibrant green color from the element chromium, as does emerald and ruby. While some have classed this as a "jadeite" (and it has been called 'Chrome Jade'), in reality the colour is due to another clinopyroxene, kosmochlor (NaCrSi2O6) and it should not, therefore, be considered a variety of jadeite. So far, maw-sit-sit has only been found in the jade mining region of Northern Burma (Myanmar). There is no other known source for this rare gemstone. Therefore, it is a rare rock and high quality materials command high prices. ** The stated price is for each necklace.
