The Girls from Twaian I made with a beautiful carving that I'm told is from Twaian.  I used Gold Stone Beads with a brown glass bead for a spacer bead.  The Gold Stone beads are very complimentary to the carved piece.  This necklace is 23" long and the carved piece is 2 1/2", with a Sterling Silver S toggle closure.

Gold Stone is believed to promote ambition and drive.
What Is The Folklore or Legend Behind Jade?
Ancient people thought that wearing jade would increase body strength and add longevity. It was thought that jade would protect the kidneys, live, spleen, heart, larynx, thymus, and thyroid. Jade is an ancient symbol of love and virtue.

Symbolic energy and beauty, the traditional and the modern are combined in jade in a particularly harmonious way. In gemstone therapy it is said that jade stimulates creativity and mental agility while having a balancing and harmonizing effect. This beautiful gemstone is said to bring you joy, vivacity and happiness, all at the same time.
