Glassy Jade Earrings - Goldfish (NJE214)
Glassy Jade Earrings - Goldfish (NJE214)
Description
This is a pair of jade earrings intricately carved as a matching pair of goldfish. The jadeite goldfish are carved from colourless jadeite with translucency that gives the carvings a glass-like appearance. Fine crystal aggregates in the jadeite carvings create a strong shimmery glow which illuminates the jadeite goldfish with an eye-catching radiance.
Goldfish carvings represent abundance and wealth in many traditions. The term "goldfish" reads similarly to "gold and jade" in the Chinese idiom 金玉满堂 which directly translates to gold and jade in abundance.
Set with 18K white gold, the goldfish carvings are decorated with natural diamonds in an interesting design. Each jade goldfish rests upon a blade of reed leaf crafted in white gold. This asymmetrical design allows the jade goldfish to dangle off one's ears with a more contemporary touch.
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 pieces.
