THE POLISHED FINISH ENHANCES THE NATURAL BEAUTY OF THE JADE WHILST PRESERVING THE SUBTLE VARIATIONS THAT CONFIRM AUTHENTICITY.

NOTE: THIS IS A CONTEMPORARY OR MODERN PIECE, LIKELY OF ASIAN MANUFACTURE. THE UNIFORM SIZING AND CONSISTENT POLISH INDICATE MACHINE FINISHING RATHER THAN HAND-WORK. JADE BRACELETS OF THIS TYPE ARE POPULAR IN CONTEMPORARY JEWELLERY AND ARE VALUED FOR BOTH AESTHETIC APPEAL AND THE TRADITIONAL CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE OF JADE IN ASIAN CULTURES.
