Three materials. Three origins. One piece that carries the weight of the earth.
This fully beaded pendant brings together Baltic Amber — fossilized tree resin over 40 million years old — with Mint Green Guatemalan Jadeite and Lava Rock in a composition that is as geologically diverse as it is visually striking. The amber center piece contains natural plant matter inclusions, ancient organic material trapped within the resin and preserved across millennia. The mint jadeite beads carry the cool, translucent character of stone sourced from Guatemala's Motagua River Valley. The lava rock adds raw, volcanic texture — porous, dark, and grounding.
Baltic Amber is unlike any other material in jewelry. It warms immediately to the touch, releases a subtle grounding fragrance when held in the palm, and is extraordinarily lightweight for its size. It is the only fossil resin that contains succinic acid (3–8%), and has been used in adornment and ceremony for thousands of years across cultures from the Baltic to the Mediterranean.
Completed with .925 sterling silver findings and a braided steel cord for lasting strength. Handmade in our small Ohio workshop.

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.
