Hand-Forged Guatemalan Jade Artisan Ring – Mixed Metals
A one-of-a-kind studio ring featuring a hand-cut natural Guatemalan jade cabochon set in a sculptural forged frame. The jade was artisan-cut and polished by the maker, revealing deep forest-green tones with natural translucency and organic internal patterning.
The setting is hand-forged using a blend of sterling silver, fine silver, and 14k gold, incorporating elements of traditional Black Hills gold to add warmth and contrast to the piece. The metalwork features hammered textures, layered forms, and a custom forged shank that gives the ring both durability and a bold architectural presence.
The stone is bezel-set in fine silver and elevated within an open gallery that allows light to pass through the jade, enhancing its depth and color.
Every element of the ring—from the lapidary work to the forged metal—was completed by hand, making this a true studio-crafted original.

What is Type A jade?
TypeA jade is natural, untreated stone — no bleaching, no polymer filling, no dye.It's the collector standard and the only grade we carry at JADEscape.Provenance documentation is available on request.
What is the difference between jadeite and nephrite?
Both are true jade, but different minerals.Jadeite is rarer, harder, and found in vivid colors including ImperialGreen.Nephrite is tougher with a silky texture, ranging from creamy white to deep forest green.We carry both.
What is Imperial Green jade?
ImperialGreen is the most prized color grade in jadeite — a vivid, evenly saturated green produced by trace chromium in the stone's crystal structure.TrueImperialGreen is highly translucent,with a depth of color that seems to glow from within.AtJADEscape, when we carry ImperialGreen material, it is always TypeA — natural and untreated.
How do I care for my jade piece?
Clean with a soft damp cloth and mild soap.Avoid ultrasonic cleaners, harsh chemicals, and prolonged sun exposure.Store separately to prevent scratching.With proper care,Type A jade lasts generations.
Do you provide certificates of authenticity?
At JADEscape, we source directly from the mines and the carvers themselves — our provenance comes from the relationship, not a certificate.The jade certification industry is largely unregulated and most commonly used by resellers.We can tell you exactly where a piece came from, who carved it, and what makes it genuine — because we were there.
