Subject:Is This 'Mutton Fat' Jade?
Posted By: Daniela Mon, Jan 08, 2018 IP: 123.243.39.80 I would like to know if a bracelet that I purchased is in fact white HETIAN jade, but more specifically, is it 'Mutton Fat' jade (I was told it was)? |

Posted By: Ernest Wilhelm Tue, Jan 09, 2018 From the picture , I would say that is Jadeite. A specific gravity test would tell which one it is. |

Posted By: Stan Wed, Jan 10, 2018 Mutton fat jade is so named for the resemblance of its yellowish white color to that of mutton fat. Your bangle appears to a light green instead. |
