Multi-Color Natural Jadeite Jade Bead Stretch Bracelet

This item is a single-strand stretch bracelet composed of approximately 16 spherical beads, likely natural jadeite jade. The beads exhibit a distinctive 'moss-in-snow' and 'red-honey' color profile, featuring a range of vibrant grassy greens, translucent pale greens, and earthy russet-orange or honey hues. Each bead measures roughly 10mm to 12mm in diameter. The construction utilizes a clear elasticized cord, typical of modern high-quality lapidary jewelry, allowing for a flexible fit. The material displays characteristic jadeite traits including a vitreous to greasy luster and inherent internal textures such as fine veining and 'clouds'. One bead shows a natural dark mineral inclusion or 'spot,' which is common in untreated Grade A jade. The surface finish is highly polished with no visible cracks or significant chips, though minor surface pits may be present due to the natural stone's crystalline structure. The style is indicative of contemporary Asian jewelry design, likely manufactured in the late 20th or early 21st century. The quality of the polish and the vividness of the green and orange tones suggest a well-selected assortment of semi-translucent stones, though laboratory testing would be required to rule out polymer impregnation (B-grade) or dye treatments (C-grade).
