玉是一種做裝飾用的礦石。玉指的是兩種硅酸鹽礦物質含量不同的變質巖。
軟玉是一種含鈣、鎂、鐵等微晶石的透閃石。其中各種礦物質含量均勻的礦石叫做陽起石（柔滑的纖維狀礦物是構成石棉的主要物質）。鐵含量越豐富，玉的顏色就越綠。

翡翠是一種鈉和鋁含量豐富的輝石，是由以硬玉為主的細小纖維狀礦物微晶縱橫交織而形成的致密塊狀集合體。 更多優質貨源請訪問中國進出口網  

從史前開始，軟玉和硬玉就被用來雕刻成裝飾品。硬玉和石英的硬度相當。軟玉要柔軟一些，但卻比硬玉更加堅硬。直到19世紀的時候，一位法國的礦石專家才將兩種不同的玉石區別開來。

軟玉也可以像奶油一樣的白色（中國稱之為“羊脂玉”），軟玉也會呈現出不同程度的綠色，而硬玉的顏色范圍就廣得多，有藍色、淡紫色、紫紅色、粉紅色和翠綠等顏色。兩種玉石相比之下，硬玉更加稀有一些，世界上只有12個地方有記載發現硬玉。無論是在歷史上還是在現代，半透明的翠綠翡翠都是最受人們欣賞和喜愛的。“格查爾”玉為明亮的綠色翡翠，產自危地馬拉，中美洲文化特別珍愛這一款玉石，而“翠鳥”玉為嫩綠色翡翠，產自緬甸，十分受19世紀之后的中國達官貴族的喜愛。 更多優質貨源請訪問中國進出口網

Jade is an ornamental rock. The term jade is applied to two different metamorphic rocks that are made up of different silicate minerals:
Nephrite consists of a micro-crystalline interlocking fibrous matrix of the calcium, magnesium-iron rich amphibole mineral series tremolite(calcium-magnesium)-ferroactinolite (calcium-magnesium-iron). The middle member of this series with an intermediate composition is called actinolite (the silky fibrous mineral form is one form of asbestos). The higher the iron content the greener the color.
Jadeite is a sodium- and aluminium-rich pyroxene. The gem form of the mineral is a microcrystalline interlocking crystal matrix.
Nephrite and jadeite were used from prehistoric periods for hardstone carving. Jadeite has about the same hardness as quartz. Nephrite is slightly softer, but is tougher than jadeite. It was not until the 19th century that a French mineralogist determined that "jade" was in fact two different minerals.
Nephrite can be found in a creamy white form (known in China as "mutton fat" jade) as well as in a variety of green colors, wheras jadeite shows more color variations, including blue, lavender-mauve, pink, and emerald-green colors. Of the two, jadeite is rarer, documented in fewer than 12 places worldwide. Translucent emerald-green jadeite is the most prized variety, both historically and today. As "quetzal" jade, bright green jadeite from Guatemala was treasured by Mesoamerican cultures, and as "kingfisher" jade, vivid green rocks from Burma became the preferred stone of post-1800 Chinese imperial scholars and rulers.
