More about this piece: These long green jade necklaces (with black pearls or white) were conceived as an integration of Eastern and Western notions of aesthetics and politics within pieces of jewelry. Eastern (Burmese, Chinese, or Russian jade and white Australian South Sea pearls (or black or silver Tahitians) are attracted to Western-style; West is attracted to East. Here Western design, culture, and materials: such as Australian white South Sea Pearls, Australian chrysoprase, and opal are integrated with Burmese jadeite and jade cut in China. These gems are worked onto 18 KT gold wire. While there is a cultural element to the choice of stone, by hand-wiring it together it has given it an organic ‘feel’. Green tones (from light to dark green with white or black) are heightened with contrasting textures, sizes, and shapes. Australians are (on a daily basis) reminded one way or another of a co-existence (both friendly and strained) with various Asian cultures in the Asia-Pacific region. From a Pre-European perspective, Asians have visited Australia for a longer period than it has been thought. Ancient Chinese and Viking wrecked boats have been found off our northern coasts. Over some centuries, Indonesian fishermen have integrated with Northern Australian aboriginals – impacting on Aboriginal art forms, distinctively more Asian in style than the rest of Australian Aboriginal art. As pearl farming became another developing business in Australia, Japanese and other Asian groups of pearl farmers integrated with the populace in the beautiful Broome region – bringing another dimension to pearl farming to our world-famous South Sea Pearls. Pearling is an established part of Australian history and business.
