{"title":"Jade","description":"\u003cp\u003eJade is a stone with a long memory. Prized in Chinese tradition for thousands of years as a stone of purity, calm, and protection, it has been worn close as a companion rather than simply an ornament, and it carries that same quiet presence today. Jade has traditionally been associated with peace, clarity of mind, and emotional balance, and each variety brings its own character to a piece, from the soft, milky translucency of white jade, which keeps light within rather than throwing it back, to the cool tones of blue water jade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery piece here is handcrafted at Rachel Hartley Atelier, with each stone chosen for its own character and shaped by hand into a piece that exists only once. Because no two jade stones are alike in tone or form, the collection will grow slowly and deliberately, each addition a one of a kind work made to be worn close and kept for a long time.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"gold-vermeil-wire-wrapped-white-jade-drop-necklace","title":"Gold Vermeil Wire Wrapped White Jade Drop Necklace","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhite jade is a stone with a long and quiet history, prized in Chinese tradition for thousands of years as a stone of purity, calm, and protection, worn close as a companion rather than simply an ornament. Its colour is soft and even, a milky white with a gentle translucency that holds light within rather than throwing it back, and no two stones are identical in tone or form. White jade has traditionally been associated with peace, clarity of mind, and emotional balance. It is said to filter out distraction, encouraging a steady, grounded calm, and to work with the heart chakra in a quiet, nurturing way, supporting stability and gentle self-acceptance that builds slowly and endures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece centres on a drop of three white jade stones, each one wrapped by hand in gold vermeil wire. The setting follows the natural contours of each stone, and the three are gathered together into a twisted bail, the wire flowing from one stone to the next so that the drop hangs with a quiet symmetry and a warmth of metal against the cool of the stone. Because no two stones are alike in shape or character, each drop is a one of a kind piece, and the arrangement is entirely its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet in gold vermeil; sterling silver with a thick layer of gold, gold vermeil is chosen here for its quality and its longevity, a step above plated jewellery and a considered alternative to solid gold. Finished on an 18 inch gold vermeil fine curb chain, the necklace sits at the collarbone, a length that works beautifully alone or as part of a layered arrangement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandcrafted at Rachel Hartley Atelier.
