Certified Untreated Grade A Jade Bangle With 18K White Gold
A certified untreated Grade A jade bangle with 18K white gold fittings, sold with its natural mineral characteristics disclosed before purchase.
Product Overview
This is the one product on the site whose listing is mostly a warning, and it is the right warning. Jade is a natural material with mineral structure imperfections, and a bangle is the largest single piece of jade most people will ever buy, so it carries more of them than a small cabochon does. The workshop's position is to photograph the inclusions and send them before the order, not after.
Key Benefits
- Certified untreated Grade A jade, not bleached, filled or dyed
- Inclusions photographed and disclosed before the order is placed

What It Looks Like
Photographs of this product taken by the factory, lit and in production. Nothing here is a rendering of a product that does not exist yet.
Who It Is For
- Jade and gemstone dealers

- Collectors buying untreated material
- Private clients commissioning through a jeweller
Problems It Solves
- Type B and C jade sold as natural, with the treatment discovered on resale

Application Scenarios
- A jade dealer buying certified bangles for retail
- A milestone gift in Chinese and Southeast Asian markets
- A collector buying on disclosed characteristics rather than a catalogue photograph
- A retailer who needs certification paperwork to sell jade at all
Technical Features

Use Guide

How It Compares With The Alternatives
A technical comparison against other ways of solving the same problem. Nothing here is a performance claim against a named competitor product.
| Against a catalogue equivalent | This page publishes the metal, the karat, the stone grade and the dimensions the factory states, and says plainly where it states none. Catalogue product usually publishes adjectives. |
| Against buying the piece ready made elsewhere | Design, casting, setting, drilling and polishing all happen in the same building, which is what keeps the decisions with the person holding the stone rather than with a purchase order. |
| Against another family in this range | See the Bracelets page for what this family does that the others do not, and the related products below for the nearest alternatives. |
