| Types of Crystal |
 |
The iron ore content in the silica sand used to produce Jade Crystal results in the distinctive green tint, which has become so popular in the trophy industry. Jade Crystal is very hard, facilitating steep bevels and capable of being finished to a very high polish level.
Jade Crystal is manufactured in varying thicknesses up to 3/4". The thicker the piece, the more distinctive the green tint, especially when viewed from the edge. The contrast of colour created by Deep Etching has made Jade Crystal a very popular choice for Award and Recognition pieces.

Defects in Crystal
Defects in material and workmanship will be corrected without charge. However, please be aware that even in the finest crystal, minor variations in clarity and colour can occur. Occasional air bubbles, chill marks or flow lines are inevitable, especially in molded or blown crystal products. In order to obtain the optimum finish, extra polishing may be necessary, which may cause variations in size. These minor variations in size, quality, colour and clarity are not considered defects.
Care of Crystal
Crystal is susceptible to minor surface scratches. Care should always be exercised in the handing of a beautiful piece of Crystal. Wash your crystal with mild soap and warm water. Dry with a dust free cloth.
