Maw Sit
Sit Slabs
Maw Sit Sit only comes from northern Burma (Myanmar) is similar enough
to Imperial Jade that it wasn't until the early 1960's that the great
gemologist, Eduard Guebelin identified it as a separate species. This
material cuts beautiful and valuable stones. Care must be taken when
cutting to avoid splintering or fracturing. Maw Sit Sit takes a fine
polish with diamond.
