[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 275242, member: 2844"]It looks like a cute Mexican onyx carving. Jade does not have those onyx like striations. Also no agate like banding, no organized looking crystal structures. There can be hairlines. When seen through a good loupe, jade structure is messy, with tiny curled bits of 'thread'. If you're hoping to find jade, it is best to get some jade knowledge first, as Komo said.[/QUOTE]
