This is a pair of light bluish green jadeite earrings carved intricately as plum blossoms flowers. Plum blossoms flower at the end of winter and signify the beginning of spring. Being able to bloom right after winter, these flowers are especially hardy and it is this trait that associates these beautiful flowers with a hardy perseverance. Blooming right at the end of winter, these blossoms are considered the first flowers of spring and represent the beauty of renewal in nature.
This pair of jadeite earrings features a light bluish green hue which has a cool, subtle appearance. The petals of the plum blossom carvings have a smooth dome shape which helps display the glossy lustre of the translucent jadeite. The high gloss of the jadeite matches well with the cool light bluish hue to give the earrings a sleek and modern look. Set simply with 18K white gold, the polished surface of the jadeite flowers is designed to rest directly against one's skin whilst worn.
The main photos are taken in natural lighting and there are 2 additional photos taken with indoor lighting to showcase the jadeite in different types of lighting. This helps to provide a good view of how the jade earrings look like indoors to provide as accurate a representation as possible of these jadeite jewellery.
