Description
This jade specimen has a round shape and displays a light blue green nephrite inside, accented by an unknown dark blue material (possibly blueshist). Visible surface fractures will extend into the stone, but there will be larger areas that will offer up good material for carving. 
Display collectors can lightly oil the surface (recommended: Trident Silicone Grease) to deepen luster and color.
