Oh my...

So all growing up I've known of my Mom's love for "green glass," as she has always called it. And I think it's pretty, but never really thought it was for me. Until I came across this, which isn't what my Mom has always like but it reminds me of her always talking about green glass. The green glass she likes in a deeper green that you can see through. This, which I am currently in love with, is opaque and a lighter color of green.

It's (I've seen it spelled two ways) - jadite or jadeite

Where I first saw it at Pioneer Woman, her post: My Favorite Things: Fire King Jadite

Want to learn more about jadeite? I did, so I read this article from Paula Deen here.

I've already started searching for the *perfect* piece to start my collection.

But I think I need to decide which spelling to go with - jadite or jadeite?
