Built around jade, the piece begins with a smooth, subtly translucent stone with a fine internal grain. Beside it, the textile cord is a tight woven cord with a matte, slightly fibrous surface, so the piece reads in two registers at once. The form is a hanging piece that sits at the collarbone, and it belongs to Snowland Story, where landscape and stone are the starting point for the design. The Buddha motif is rendered as a seated figure in shallow relief. It is drawn from Buddhist visual tradition and gives the design a composed, symmetrical centre; its meaning sits with the wearer rather than in any promised outcome.
A short account of the materials, taken in the order they matter to the design. For the jade, the behaviour matters more than the finish: it is tough and forgiving in daily wear, and the surface takes a gentle sheen with handling. Inside the piece, the textile cord is a closely braided cord whose matte surface shows the weave up close. Handled often, it softens further with handling, and a strand worn every day will eventually lift where it crosses a metal edge.
One configuration is listed — Jade Yin Yang — and that is the piece confirmed from the current photographs. Ask for extra photographs of the exact piece if any detail matters to your decision. The contemplative theme is a wearer’s reminder; no effect is claimed for the material itself. Stone and organic materials are never identical twice: minor variation in tone and figure is part of the material. Availability, the final measurements and the preparation window are confirmed with you in writing before payment.
Care
Avoid impact at thin edges and keep it away from household chemicals; a soft dry cloth is enough. Keep it dry, avoid perfume and household chemicals, and replace the cord once the fibres begin to lift. Remove it before a shower or a swim, and dry it fully if it does get wet. Keep it out of a damp room and separate from harder pieces, and the finish will hold far longer.
