Jade BraceletsThe Chinese word for jade is "Yii" meaning "one who rules;therefore, jade was worn only by the Emperor and his family. In Chinese culture, jade was believed to have special qualities that were a mixture of the spiritual and magical, and was therefore a link between the physical world and the spiritual world.
Found in mountains and also in riverbeds, jade was even believed to have once flowed from the mountains as a liquid, a liquid which would confer a long life on those who drank it.
"Therefore am I distinguished
Though I wear clothing made of burlap,
I carry jade within my bosom."

"Its gentle, smooth, glossy appearance suggests charity of heart;
Its fine close texture and hardness suggests wisdom;
It is firm and yet does not wound, suggesting duty to one's neighbor;
It hangs down as though sinking, suggesting ceremony;
Struck, it gives a clear note, long drawn out,
Dying gradually away and suggesting music..." Confucius

Silver Petals on the BoughSOLD
The exquisite lampwork beads of Irene Collier form the basis of jade bead bracelet and lampwork bead earring set. The beads match the jade wonderfully and the swirls are the colour of the lavender or orchid jade. A large sterling silver Bali bead is a focal and charms hang throughout the bracelet: a sterling silver flower beside the large bead, a filigree leaf on one side, one beside the sterling silver toggle clasp (Karen Hill Tribes toggle clasp). One end of the jade bracelet is made of lovely pleated sterling silver beads from the Karen Hilltribes. The matching earrings are made of the lampwork beads, filigree beads, and hang from beaded round studs. The jade bracelet will be sized to fit you. We can also change the earrings to earwires if you prefer - or leverbacks.
