A one-of-one carved nephrite band, hand-refinished and reworked in the Bootleg Silver Co. studio with Arizona gem silica inlay.
This is the smallest and thinnest of the current nephrite bands, giving it a lighter, more streamlined profile while still carrying the strong contrast that defines this Desert Bloom interpretation. The deep green nephrite shows natural variation and soft translucency, while the bright blue-green Arizona gem silica adds a vivid edge of color.
Originally sourced from a master carver’s discard material, the band was polished and transformed into a new piece that brings together jade and the American Southwest in a distinctly Bootleg Silver Co. way.

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.
