What is the best quality jade?
The best quality jade is imperial jade. Virtually transparent with vivid emerald-green color, it is said to be the highest-quality jadeite. The Chinese royal court used to have a standing order for all accessible material of this type, and it's now one of the most valuable jewels on the planet.
