Green Jadeite Anklet / Bracelet - 母子扣 (NJBA148)

Green Jadeite Anklet / Bracelet - 母子扣 (NJBA148)

Description

This jadeite bracelet consists of 2 jadeite carvings. One is a jadeite carving shaped like a doughnut with a hollow middle. Interestingly, the portion that was removed to create the jadeite doughnut was carefully carved and polished into a tiny jadeite cylinder that makes up the second jadeite carving in this bracelet.

This carving design is referred to as a 母子扣. This term directly translates to "mother and child buckle" because of how the smaller jadeite carving is derived directly from the larger jadeite doughnut. Both jadeite carvings are beautifully carved and polished. A striking splash of green can be observed on both carvings, giving a beautiful resemblance to the jadeite carvings.

Crafted in 18K yellow gold, this can be worn as a bracelet or an anklet. The beautiful meaning of the 母子扣 makes this a perfect gift to a child. With an adjustable length, this can be worn on a child's ankle and increases in length can be made to accommodate a growing child's ankle size. Older children or young adults can wear this as a bracelet. 3 tiny golden bells are added on the bracelet / anklet along with the Chinese term 如意. Ru Yi (如意) literally means "as desired". This carries an auspicious meaning wishing its wearer the ability to achieve his or her dreams.

These jadeite carvings are natural Type A jadeite and the colour hue and lustre as seen in the photos are representative of the actual quality of the jadeite. The last 2 photos in the set are taken in indoor lighting.
