Once prized by the ancient Maya, black jade jewels compose today this fascinating necklace by the Jimenez Family of Guatemala. The design boasts nine jade cabochons, each arranged in a modern design of high-polished sterling silver.

A beautiful beautiful cross”

I love wearing this cross. People notice it and, for those who are interested, it starts conversations too. I can tell that it was lovingly made. Many thanks.

Beautiful Jade Earrings”

My wife loved these jade earrings. The stone color is a lovely green. And the silver work and craftmanship looks very high quality. They go well with a necklace that she also has from the same great artisan.
