The ancient Magatam symbol cut from nephrite jade!
Magatamas are among the oldest known forms of gemstones and amulets; historical finds from burial mounds are known to date back to around 1000 BC. Even today, the shape of the magatama is still important as a popular jewelry symbol. The symbol represents the human spirit and is considered a powerful amulet that provides effective protection against evil spirits.
Translated from Japanese, magatama means "curved pearl".
Size of the Magatama made of Nephrite 3.2 x 1.6 x 0.8 cm, diameter of the hole 3 mm.
Nephrite jade as a strand for threading necklaces and bracelets is rather unusual - and yet the gemstone healing aspects of the mineral are so interesting: Nephrite gives inner balance and thus shields against negative influences from outside. Brooding and fruitless thinking can be overcome more easily with Nephrite.
Nephrite can also be found on the market as Maori jade, nephrite jade, nefrite or New Zealand jade. In mineralogical terms, Nephrite is an actionolite with many small, interlocking crystals. Occurrence of the olive green color is due to iron and chromium.

Hello! My name is Marco Schreier and I am the founder of the Mineralienhandlung GmbH of the same name. Creativity and stones have been a topic for me since I was a child, and they first shaped my free time and then my entire professional life.
As a child, this began playfully with collecting and crafting with stones I had found myself and with the first minerals that my grandfather brought me from the Alps. Later, a fascination for processing, sawing, grinding, designing and artistic work with gemstones emerged. With our Chili Creative ® brand, we managed to build up a range developed by experts from our wholesale business and our production sites in Asia.
Today, numerous professional jewelry designers, goldsmiths, jewelry makers, jewelers and creative people from the online world such as Etsy and Pinterest providers use the components of Chili Creative® in their projects. With our tools, stone components, bead strands, pearls and silver parts as well as high-quality stringing materials, you can create creative jewelry projects that are highly profitable for resale.
