This unique Olmec maskette is made from Guatemalan Imperial Green Jadeite and Imperial Blue Jadeite.

Garza-Valdes in the book "Precolumbian Jade" states "Omphacites are known as mesoamerican imperial jades". It probably contains inclusions of precious metals of silver, gold, and platinum. These metals can be seen in the pictures as spots or flecks...
