Gold Plum Blossom and Red Jade Bracelet

More red jade designs created for the 2023 (and beyond!) Lunar New Year! To me, this bracelet evokes the serenity of walking through a garden in bloom in the spring. Clear beads of red jade surround a single 18kt gold-filled plum blossom connector. The beads on each side offset by tiny 3mm 18kt gold-filled rounds. Red jade is a type of jadeite - one of two minerals that are considered true jade (the other being nephrite). Considered the "warrior's stone" and connected to the root chakra, it is associated with power and fearlessness, stimulating chi and bringing forth vitality and passion. Like other jade, it is also associated with prosperity, though less than green jade. It helps with self-doubt and indecisiveness, encouraging action, especially to overcome difficult circumstances or breaking bad habits. In Chinese tradition, red jade is associated with life force, energy, and luck. Beads are 8mm. $31 includes gift / storage bag.
