Does jade or jadeite appear naturally in any other colors beside white or green?

I have several pieces of jadeite in different colors, red, lavender, yellow, white and green. Being somewhat of a purist, I just would like to know which are natural and not "enhanced." I just heard that the green is natural due to its proximity to aventurine in the mines. Thank you in advance for your interest and your thoughtful replies. I apologize for spelling because there seems to be no spell check in this block.

Jadeite comes in a range of colours. Green jadeite is coloured by a small chromium content and has nothing at all to do with aventurine which is green due to flakes of green mica which it contains. Telling the stained jades apart from natural is not always easy but careful examination under a microscope will usually show a concentration of colour between the crystalites. Analysis with a spectroscope is probably the surest method.
