A splendid pair of Art Deco 9ct Gold carved Jade drop earrings to add a pop of green to your everyday outfits! Boasting charming carved details, these jade earrings are formed in two sections and have a gorgeously smooth surface, bezel set jade stones at the top, and unique carving droppers with a marbled colour display.
The jade is a beautiful shade of apple green, with dark and pale veins running through it. They’re held in 9ct gold settings and feature butterfly studs at the back.
The carving looks to be of three eggplants or ''aubergines''.
Jade is a stone rich in legend and mysticism, highly valued throughout history for its soothing green colour and glossy surface. It was especially revered in East Asia, where it was referred to as ''The Stone of Heaven.'' People believed that possessing jade would bring good fortune and a long life.
