Edwards Black Wyoming Nephrite Ring-16.06mm

Pris

$250,00

Jade rings can be made in many ways. Some simple, some elegant and unique. I meticulously handcraft all rings with a goal in mind depending on various ideas the stone may motivate. I typically use the natural beauty of the stone properties for strength (direction of grain) and colors within and rind variations.

 

Elevate your elegance with this Edwards Black Wyoming Nephrite Ring – Size 6 #1, exclusively handcrafted by JadeDivers. This striking and unique ring showcases the unmatched quality of truly hand-made jade jewelry created with what is known as the best black jade in the world. The Edwards Black jade appears to be mined out since the 60’s but its rarity may also be influenced by the difficulty and safety mining too deep in the earth. A very unique piece from our collection. This Ring has a high polish as expected. This Ring is a modern style that is very eloquent. I cut this ring with the grain (which nephrite has) to be in the best direction to promote integrity and strength.

Material History

Wyoming Nephrite Jade

"Wyoming apple green nephrite jade is known across the world as some of the finest nephrite jade ever created by mother nature". I have worked jade from all over the world and have to attest to this beginning statement made by Bob Scholl that most Wyoming jade is simply underrated as most of it has the finest and most consistent grain I have worked. It's not just the Wyoming "Apple" or "Edwards black" that is of this high quality but even the lesser known quality materials are superior. Wyoming jade does come in all qualities and some is low quality but even what jade experts call a "dirty" jade that has visibly seen impurities/inclusions can still be superb quality compared to other high quality jade from around the world with little or no inclusions. Wyoming jade is simply a unique micro-fiber jade that is a jade carvers dream.

About

Proud to say one of my specialties at Jadedivers.com is making one of kind custom beads found almost no where in the world. Most of my beads are going to have cone tapered ends that are deburred and polished. My photos are taken to show the natural colors without photo enhancements. I believe this will best represent the colors and promote repeat customers. Yes, I also make rings!

 

** Note: Many items stated to be "Jade" on Etsy and Ebay are not. In many cases, price does not indicate this either so buying an expensive item may be a jade replica like glass. There are many other stones including agate, grossular garnet, serpentine (many forms), aventurine... being sold as jade. To make it worse and more complicated, many jadeite stones are being reconditioned and died to be very attractive so they pass general tests to be real. If you see  very clear bangles, odds are they are agate, glass or something else. If you see very bright colors of red, yellow, purple... most likely not real. I say this as many buyers are being fooled on-line by these practices.
