The green gemstone; precious stone
Jhade is a modern creative spelling of the name Jade. It refers to the ornamental green stone that is highly valued in many cultures, particularly in East Asia, for its beauty and durability. The name ultimately derives from the Spanish phrase 'piedra de la ijada', meaning 'stone of the flank', based on the belief that jade could cure ailments of the loins or kidneys.
