Jade and Heart Diamond Ring in 18ct White Gold

A tactile 18ct white gold cocktail ring which features a central oval 10.00ct cabochon piece of vivid green jade flanked by two heart shaped diamonds (1.30ct). The candy like cabochon jade almost glows with the green of spring, and has been securely claw set. The two heart shaped diamonds showcase a rich sparkle and were hand selected to perfectly complement the centre stone. Certified as much sought after “Type A” this is natural jadeite jade that displays the best green colour. This type of jade was originally reserved for the Emperor, and has been revered and adored by Chinese culture for thousands of years. Known to attract good luck and friendship, jade jewellery is still a status symbol in China today, and was often featured in Edwardian and Art Deco pieces.
The popularity of jadeite has soared in the past few years, with examples seen on the red carpet and featuring in the collections of both the Duchess of Cambridge and the Countess of Wessex.
