Today I get to feature...me! Here are a few designs fresh off my work bench. You can see them in person at one of my upcoming shows. This is the last of my Flower Jade series. When I began working with these stones I had no intention of mixing them with pearls, but the stones had other ideas!

 Mixed with freshwater pearls. 

Flower Jade is a type of Jadeite. The variety of Jade known as Jadeite comes in a variety of colors including red, orange, yellow, green, blue, lilac, pink, black, white, and brown. Historically, Jadeite has been treasured in China as the royal gemstone, Yu, for 5,000 years. Mined in Japan, Myanmar, Guatemala and USA.  Flower jade is thought to enhance confidence and self-assuredness, helps one gain knowledge from dreams, and assists in getting in touch with one’s spiritual side.
