A delicate pair of threader earrings in 18K gold (Au750), each ending in a hand-carved drop of natural white jadeite. NGTC certifies the jadeite as Type A, meaning it is untreated: no bleaching, no polymer impregnation and no dyeing. Each drop is carved as a slender, gently curved bean pod with three plump beans along its length. In Chinese tradition, the bean pod (福豆, "fortune bean") is a cherished emblem of blessings and good fortune, and its three beans are often read as a wish for success in every endeavour. The carving is smoothly polished, so the light moves softly across the rounded beans. The jadeite is a translucent white with a cool, clean appearance that pairs beautifully with the warm tone of the gold. The earrings are worn as threaders. A fine 18K gold flat-link chain passes through the ear, with a slim gold bar at one end, and the bean pod hangs from a small gold ring at the other. This lets the wearer adjust how long the earrings hang, from a neat drop to a longer, fluid line that moves with every turn of the head. At their longest they measure 74.6 mm. Light and understated, these are easy to wear every day, elegant enough for evening, and a meaningful gift.
