JADE
Turkish purple jade or turkiyenite
PAIR
Bursa
The purple-colored unique gem material is only found in the Harmancık (Bursa) region of the western Anatolia (Turkey). Therefore, it is specially called “Turkish purple jade or turkiyenite” on the worldwide gem market.
As the concentration of Jadeite in Turkish Purple Jade is 40 – 60 percent (also contains Feldspar, Lawsonite, Quartz, and Zircon), and as on opaque gem, Turkish Purple Jade doesn't necessarily have the same luminescence as Burmese Lavender Jadeite, one of Jade's rarest varieties, but it does have a similar beauty
Hardness6.5 – 7
Refractive Index1.652 – 1.688
Relative Density3.30 – 3.38
EnhancementNone
No longer mined, Turkish Purple Jade is extremely difficult to source in any grade, with quality and prices varying depending on color and inclusions. Turkish Purple Jade is also totally natural and unenhanced, which is a critical attribute for top qualities, accentuating desirability, rarity, and value.
Given this historic rarity, the Turkish government is apparently considering designating Turkish Purple Jade a National Heritage Stone
