Composants pour bijoux DIY en pierre naturelle Jade

There are two types of natural jade: nephrite and jadeite. Nephrite, more common and accessible, is generally dark green, cream or gray. The rarer jadeite offers the widest palette of greens, including the famous and much sought-after imperial green.

For the creation of DIY jewelry, both types are ideally suited. Nephrite is ideal for getting started with this stone without investing a fortune, while jadeite will add a touch of luxury to your centerpieces.

Jade blends harmoniously with many components:

• With gold and gilded brass: the contrast between jade, whether natural or tinted, and the warm glow of gilded metal creates elegant, precious jewelry.
• With silver: the combination of jade and silver evokes traditional Chinese jewelry, perfect for an authentic ethnic style.
• With other natural stones: carnelian, rose quartz, amethyst or freshwater beads complement jade beautifully in colorful compositions.
• With wood: for natural, organic creations, jade goes wonderfully well with light or dark wood beads.
