From the Steppe to the Desert: New Jade & Gobi Agate Bracelets Have Arrived

From the Steppe to the Desert

Kazakh Jade & Gobi Desert Agate — Where the Steppe Meets the Desert


Two of the world's most storied stone-bearing landscapes have come together on a single strand. The rolling grasslands of Central Asia, where Kazakh jadeite has been prized for millennia, now share the wrist with the wind-polished agates of the Gobi Desert — stones shaped by millions of years of erosion across one of Earth's most extreme environments. The result is a new collection of stretch bracelets that feel as ancient as the land they came from.

Each bracelet in this collection is strung on a 0.7mm stretch cord with 8mm beads, handcrafted without treatment or enhancement of any kind. What you see is exactly what the earth made.

“What you see is exactly what the earth made — no heat, no dye, no enhancement. Just stone, time, and craft.”

The Stones: A Brief Introduction

Kazakh Jade (Type A Jadeite) — Sourced from the mineral-rich regions of Kazakhstan, this jadeite is classified Type A: entirely natural, untreated, and unenhanced. Its characteristic soft green carries a quiet depth that has made Central Asian jade a cornerstone of adornment and ceremony for thousands of years.

Sunset Agate — The Last Light of the Gobi

Gobi Desert Agate — Formed in ancient volcanic flows and shaped over eons by wind and sand, Gobi agates are collected from the surface of the desert floor across Mongolia and Inner Mongolia. Each stone is unique in color and pattern — no two are alike. The collection spans a remarkable palette: fiery orange-red, golden sunset, pale lemon, celadon, sage green, and cool mint.

Craftsmanship Notes

Every bracelet in this collection is assembled by hand. Beads are selected individually for color consistency and character, then strung on 0.7mm stretch cord — no clasp, no hardware, just stone and cord. All stones are untreated and unenhanced. Sizes are one-size-fits-most stretch.

Gobi Desert agates are surface-collected stones, meaning each one has been shaped entirely by natural forces over geological time. No two are identical. The bracelet you receive will be the one photographed, or its closest available equivalent in the same color family.

Sage & Stone — A Conversation Between Two Greens

“The Gobi Desert agate is not a manufactured gemstone. It is a found object — shaped by wind, sand, and time across one of the world’s most ancient landscapes.”

All bracelets are $120 USD. Handcrafted. Untreated. One of a kind.
