You can perhaps decide if it is stone or not.
If it is stone turn it upside down, then with a strong needle make a a2-3 mm scratch, use enough pressure until you see a white or black mark. Let us know the color of that tiny line.

In this case, if it is a stone. .then it is not a hardstone. Not Jade.
