We were commissioned to remodel a jade ring into a pendant necklace.
The customer was concerned that the jade appeared dark due to the original platinum setting. They requested a simple yet bright design.

We decided to use gold for the material to brightly enhance the green color.
Melee diamonds are arranged radially from the jade, bringing a brightness like the sun or a morning star to the wearer's chest. The contrast between the opaque jade and the delicately sparkling melee diamonds makes the center stone stand out even more.
For the pendant top, we used an azuki chain, which has an impressive lustrous shine depending on the angle. The result is a simple yet elegantly gorgeous pendant necklace, characteristic of 440.

Upon seeing the reformed pendant necklace, the customer was very satisfied with the change, saying, "I'm so happy that it looks so much brighter, it's hard to believe it's the same jade." Thank you very much for entrusting us with this creation.
