- New jade donut, 50mm diameter
- Donuts make quick and easy pendants. Use our handy bails for a simple, beautiful solution. See it in action in the second image. Or, put them on one side for an asymmetrical necklace design using seed beads around the donut on two sides creating a link, see PDA-11 for inspiration. Create a focal clasp using findings like the toggle bar FIF-291.
- This shape, called Bi in Chinese, symbolizes heaven
- New Jade is a light green form of Serpentine, sometimes called Hsiu Jade, or Korean Jade, a term also associated with Olive Jade, another Serpentine.
- New Jade’s color ranges from a pale true green, to a light yellow-green. Depending on which type you have, it works well with a variety or other greens; light or Cape Amethysts or Pearls and gold; or warm earth tones from yellow-orange through dark brown. Surprisingly it can also work with bright reds like Cinnabar. When working with direct opposites, designs generally work best if the quantities of each color used are uneven.
