## Description

Gemstone Large Buddha - Jade is a jade decorative figure depicting the Buddha, made for a shelf, altar or quiet corner.

The Buddha, Siddhartha Gautama, taught in northern India around the 5th century BCE. Statues show him in mudras, hand gestures that each carry a meaning, such as touching the earth or turning the wheel of the teachings.

At around 5cm this is the small, palm-sized option: easy to tuck into a pocket, a pouch or a bedside drawer. Small pieces suit rings and earrings, a single tumble stone, travel kits and tight altar spaces.

From the maker: Discover the tranquility and spiritual harmony embodied in the Gemstone Large Buddha - Jade. Crafted from the serene energies of jade, a stone revered for its purity and wisdom, this Buddha figurine is a perfect addition to any space.

This is one of 4 options in the Gemstone Large Buddha range; nearby choices include Que Sera Stone, Rose Quartz, Amethyst.

Jade is a name shared by two minerals, nephrite and jadeite (Indian jade is usually green aventurine-quartz), typically green, from pale to deep. It measures 6–7 on the Mohs hardness scale. Natural stone; 'Indian jade' is usually a green aventurine-quartz rather than nephrite or jadeite.

Confucius compared the qualities of jade to the virtues of a gentleman.

Size: approximately 50mm. Natural material varies slightly in size, colour and markings.

## Traditions (belief, not health claims)

Outside those traditions, many people keep a Buddha figure as a symbol of calm and mindfulness. We describe this as cultural tradition; please display sacred figures respectfully, off the floor and out of bathrooms. Jade has been treasured in China for over 7,000 years as a symbol of virtue and good fortune. In modern crystal tradition jade is linked with the heart chakra and with Taurus, Libra and Pisces. Traditional meanings are offered for interest and reflection, not as a health claim.

## How to use

- Pair it with a tealight, a small plant or an incense holder for a simple meditation corner.
- Rest it at or above eye level on a shelf, mantel or altar.
- It pairs traditionally with rose quartz or clear quartz.
- Gifting idea: ritual tools are personal; a gift card or a note inviting the recipient to choose can be just as welcome.
- Care idea: wipe tools after each ritual so wax, ash and water marks don't build up.
- Reading idea: a cloth laid out before a tarot reading marks the start of a focused session.

## Care

- Wipe with a fine, slightly damp cloth and dry it straight away; steer clear of soaps, salt and long soaks.
- Dust with a fine, dry brush; steer clear of harsh cleaners on painted finishes.
