Jade pendant

This 39 x 34 mm pendant is crafted from high-purity 950 silver. The central stone, an exceptional 32 x 23 mm jade stone, dominates the design. Its characteristic deep green hue is accentuated by a translucent white band. The key to this pendant's design lies in the combination of the silver and the polished dark green of the jade. The jade is prong-set, allowing its color to shine through.

Imperial jade, from Myanmar, is the highest quality jade. Its green color comes from chromium, and it is translucent. Yellow jadeites owe their color to the presence of ferric, and violet jadeites to the transfer of ferrous to ferric charge. It was believed to have the power to cure kidney diseases.
