Pearl & 18K Gold Necklace, 32", circa 1970s-1980

I love rare things. Here's why: you can be the wealthiest person in the world, wake up one morning, stretch and decide, "I want a jadeite and grandidierite beaded necklace." But even...

This 30" Jadeite Jade, Pink Spinel & 18K White Gold Endless Necklace is a one-of-a-kind jewel created entirely by hand from 130 natural and untreated, hughly translucent deep green jadeite jade beads from Guatemala, each of which measures just shy of 5mm. 1.89 solid 18K white gold spacer beads that are faceted in four "bands" along each bead. This has the effect of reflecting light into the rich green jadeite beads and increasing their luminosity , but the beads also add diamond-like sparkle between each bead. The necklace has no clasp and is finished with a pair of natural, 5mm Burmese pink spinel beads. Although I am not offering this necklace with a certificate from a gem lab, it is because I have bought an enormous amount of Guatemalan jadeite from this particular supplier, and I tested his beads for years; all were 100% natural and untreated. I am also a Certified Professional Gemologist, with advanced training in jade. The finest green jadeite coming out of Guatemala right now is gemologically and microscopically identical to jadeite from Burma. Giving us jade lovers a conflict-free option for imperial and near-imperial jade jewelry...
