Green Jade Pea Pod Butterfly Earrings

SGD$1,600

Grade A green jade pea pod butterfly earrings with great lustre and translucency. Though small, the jadeite pea pods have a vibrant green hue and are highly translucent with an icy base. The jadeites’ quality is good with fine jade grains and rich water content, therefore the entire jadeite pair appears shiny and glossy. Clarity is good with no cracks or significant inclusions to note. This pair of earrings is uniquely designed and looks very pretty on ear.

A special setting technique – Plique-à-jour (French for “letting in daylight”), is used for the design of this jewel. It is a vitreous enamelling technique where the enamel is applied in the 18k white gold cells, similar to cloisonné, but with no backing in the final product, so light can shine through the transparent or translucent enamel.  Gold power is sprinkled on top of the colourless enamel. Designed in 18K white gold and natural diamonds.

The photographs are taken both indoor and outdoor under natural daylight and direct sunlight.

Jade pea pod dimensions (exclude setting): 8.6mm x 3.7mm, 8.7mm x 3.7mm

Overall earrings dimensions: 14mm x 15.8mm
