Whole nodule polished on a couple of corners. Good black but may have some mottling. Difficult to tell as polished areas do not reach deeply into stone.
Reverse side of same nodule
Good black. One end sawn but not polished. Upper left corner of sawn face shows circular spot that was dabbed with water.(Right hand picture).
This piece is flattish and is an olive green color. Portion of end towards camera has area that was polished and shows reflection. This is a whole nodule that has not been sawn.
This piece is an even darker green. It has not been sawn.
As you probably know, all "BLACK" jade is really a very dark green. The pieces shown here that are refered to as BLACK actually appear black except near the outer skin.
