In this brief report we will discuss one specific requirement that many buyers have requested for. The fact that this jade pendant is fully custom made means that, the gemstone type can be selected by you. The requirement for the gemstone to touch the skin is put forward by buyers who believe in the special powers and properties of gems. We would like to clarify right here that, we do not claim that any of the gems that we offer have any super powers or magical properties at the same time, we are always willing to fulfill specific requirements made by buyers. While we will discuss the issue related to gemstone touching the skin, with reference to the PG3001 jade pendant - the information will be applicable to all types of jewelry.

JADE AND JADEITE

When talking about jade pendants or any jewelry with jade gemstones, it is important to understand that - jade includes two different gems. The more commonly found variety of jade is referred to as nephrite. The PG3001 jade pendant shown on this page and the jade rings, shown on other Kaisilver websites are all crafted with jadeite. This is a rarer variety of jade and also more expensive as compared to nephrite. Rich green jadeite is quite expensive and jewelers generally use dyed jadeite, to please jade jewelry lovers! Kaisilver can provide jadeite of all qualities and price ranges but, we would suggest that you go for a medium grade untreated jadeite - this simply means that the gem is mined and cut, no dyeing or other treatment is applied to the gem. The above jade pendant can be crafted in gold or silver, the pendant is shown with a medium grade jadeite that has not been treated. You can let us know if you required a dyed  jade gem or a high quality jade gem for your pendant. Email our experts at sales@kaisilver.com if you need any more information. 

TRADITION

Belief in the special powers of gems has existed for many centuries. The earliest recorded cases of gems and crystals being worn by ladies and men, connected specific gems to specific powers of each gemstone. For example, the belief that wearing a carnelian gem brings self confidence and calmness. Another example is the strong belief that a bloodstone can help blood circulation, and also clear other blood disorders. It is traditions of this type that, bring up regular requests for the gem in our jade pendant to touch the skin from the back side of the pendant. Wearing a jade pendant is believed to give you peace of mind, it is also believed that jade is the gem for financial prosperity and good health. While attracts much attention for its sheer beauty, Kaisilver crafts a significant number of jade jewels each year for, believers in the special properties of the gem. Having said that, it is easy to understand that these are merely folklore and beliefs.  

GEM TO TOUCH SKIN

It is quite easy to visualize that the gemstone in the PG3001 jade pendant, is flat on the backside. This is how most gems are cut in cabochon form, curved on the top and flat at the bottom. We come to a requirement that is put forward by quite a few gem lovers - who believe in the special 'powers' of a gemstone. Consider the PG3001 with a jade gem that, touches the skin from the backside. If this is to happen, you would need a jade gem that is ideally convex (bulging out) on both sides. You can let us know if you require that the gem in your jade pendant touches the skin, we will work together on details and pricing. 

One option would be to have two flat jade gems and mount them back to back in the pendant. This would add an additional cost element as you have two and one just one gem in your jade pendant. You cannot have a gem that is cut with a sharp back as that would mean that, the sharp point or edge could scratch delicate skin. 

GOLD OR SILVER

Stay assured that Kaisilver will maintain the same highly quality standards, for a jade pendant in gold or silver. This makes it easier for you to choose a gold or silver jade pendant. As Kaisilver style experts would mention, a classic design with a timeless look - can often appear better in silver as compared to gold. This is true of the PG3001 jade pendant, notice the artistic deseign elements of the jewel - silver, even with a slight tarnish would add to the beauty of the piece. The same is true of the well known Kaisilver claddagh jade ring - history's most meaningful jewel. 

If you wish to go for a jade gold pendant, specify 10k, 14k or 18k gold and further mention your preference for white, yellow or pink gold. We would recommend 14k jade pendants as, the 14k gold option delivers the right balance, between metal hardness and gold content. It is also true that pendants go through lesser wear and teas as compared to, rings - this makes it easier to decide on selecting gold parameters. 

For a silver jade gemstone pendant our recommendation would be to, leave the pendant un-plated. Saying this because while a plating on silver would prevent tarnish, the effect would be temporary. Any plating done on a silver jade pendant or any other silver jewel, would wear off after a while. That wear off would happen in patches, the exposed portions would start to tarnish. Polishing and cleaning the silver jade pendant at that point, would pose some severe challenges. It is for this reason that we suggest that, your jade silver pendant be left un-plated. Like always, we will leave the final decision to you. We did mention earlier that the classic design of the PG3001 jade gemstone pendant, would look even beautiful with a bit of tarnish on it - adds an antique aura to the jewel.

Going a step further, the dimensions, gem shape or any other feature of the original garnet pendant, could be modified to  suit your preference.
