Dendritic jade is a type of jade that is characterized by the presence of dendrites, which are branching or tree-like inclusions of minerals that are embedded in the jade. Dendritic jades are formed when mineral solutions flow into the cavities of jade and crystallize, forming the dendritic patterns. The most common minerals that form dendritic patterns in jades are manganese and iron oxide, which give the dendrites their black or dark brown color.
 
Dendritic jades are prized for their unique and intricate patterns, which can vary widely in appearance. They are often used in jewelry and decorative objects, and are believed to have a number of healing properties. Dendritic jades are thought to be grounding stones that can help to promote balance and stability, and are also believed to have the ability to help people connect with nature.
