Hi all you gemologists!

    I've been buying a couple stones that I have no idea what they
    really are - specifically, plum jade and peachy jade.  They are
    chocolate brown with a lavender tone and warm pink with some
    semi-white/light green mottling.  They are both rather hard (can's
    scratch with a knife and sounds like jade when you klink them
    together.)  My Chinese supplier says they are the names
    aforementioned.  However, knowing the willy nilly use of the term
    "jade" I'm hard pressed to believe it.  Do any of you have any
    knowledge of these stones' real names?  You can find photos of them
    under "jade" on my web site.
