Two polished 18K yellow gold wires, one of them finely beaded along its top edge, arch side by side over the whole top end of this tablet as a broad, handle-like bail; they are joined near each end and meet the jade at small round caps on either side. The long sides bow out a little and the corners are rounded, so the white nephrite jade tablet looks like a slim, soft-edged bar; a narrow stepped border surrounds the smooth centre. From the top of the bail to the base it measures 33 mm. Untreated nephrite jade, tablet 29 × 13 × 7 mm, 6.6 g. 18K yellow gold bail. Chain not included.

FAQ
Nephrite or jadeite? Both are jade, and both are exceptionally tough. Nephrite is the tougher of the two, with a softer, quieter luster; jadeite is harder and glassier. Natural nephrite jade is the principal stone in every JIE JIANG piece; where a piece also carries jadeite, its product page says so. The species is written on the tag, and for high-value pieces a GIA identification report is available on request.
Does it change with wear? Physically, a little: nephrite is very tough but not scratch-proof, so years of daily wear can leave fine surface marks. It does not fade or change colour.
Water and sweat? Fine for hand-washing and rain. Take it off for pools, hot tubs and sport: chlorine and sweat wear on silk thread and metal findings rather than on the stone. Dry it before storing.
