Ok, not black but a rather khaki grey. Deep and shiny, anyway.

Love this this natural type A Wuji Jadeite strand that I had to get another one as soon as I looked at it in natural sunny daylight. Reminded me of soft charcoal sketching medium ;). The grey is more of a grey lavender with predominately black and white tones and, has translucency and opaque moments in the round beads, just pure mother nature art. Unsual and rare to see a colour such as lavender in black jadeite no wonder it's mined out and makes me wonder that there must of been beautiful tones of Lavender jadeite along side this beautiful Jadeite.  This strand offers potential to ombre shade it yourself from light to dark. Add white or lavender pearls or, black jadeite or white jadeite or, other gemstones to make amazing jewellery. Definitely feel grateful to own this Jadeite Thank you JM **
