Created as a one-of-one design within the Heritage Series, this hand-forged sterling silver statement necklace celebrates exceptional American turquoise and substantial traditional metalsmithing.
At the center is a remarkable closed-mine Bisbee turquoise cabochon, with an additional Bisbee turquoise accent at the top, surrounded by a halo of vivid Sonoran turquoise. The contrast between the Bisbee matrix and the brighter surrounding stones gives the pendant depth, movement, and a strong collector presence.
The pendant is built in heavy-gauge sterling silver with a shadow-box construction, detailed bezel work, hand-stamped embellishments, and dimensional silver accents throughout. Measuring approximately 2½” x 2½” and approaching 3” at its widest points, it is a substantial statement piece designed to stand on its own.
Finished on a 16-inch hand-forged sterling silver chain with a handmade artisan clasp, the necklace carries true heirloom weight while remaining balanced for wear.
Built to be collected, worn, and ultimately passed from one generation to the next, this piece reflects the philosophy behind the Heritage Series: preserving exceptional materials and traditional metalsmithing through modern heirlooms.

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.
