Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Jade bead necklaces gained widespread popularity in Western fashion during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, influenced by trade with East Asia. The figa hand motif, an ancient protective talisman representing good fortune, was frequently incorporated into Victorian and Edwardian jewellery as a decorative clasp or charm.

These items typically feature natural jadeite or nephrite beads, hand-drilled and strung on silk thread. Clasps are commonly constructed from yellow gold, rolled gold, or pinchbeck metal, styled into sculpted hand or geometric designs.

Authentic pieces exhibit variations in colour, opacity, and internal grain structure rather than uniform perfection. Natural jade remains cool to the touch, and historical items usually feature hand-tied knots between individual beads along with period-appropriate metalwork on the clasp.

A double-strand jade necklace can be worn over neutral silk blouses or dark knitwear to highlight the green tones. It can also be layered alongside minimalist gold chains for a modern, textured aesthetic.

Wipe the beads gently with a soft microfibre cloth after wear to remove skin oils. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals, perfume, ultrasonic cleaners, and excessive moisture, which can degrade the silk stringing wire or damage the metal clasp.
