{"product_id":"black-nephrite-jade-pendant-14k-gold-tree-falling-leaves","title":"Black Nephrite Jade Pendant, 14K Gold Tree \u0026 Falling Leaves","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eA large vintage pendant of polished black nephrite jade, 51mm in diameter and 4mm thick, with a deep, glossy surface. A sculpted 14k yellow gold tree is applied to the face, its textured branches bearing brushed-gold leaves, with a few leaves drifting down the disc as if the tree were letting go of its autumn foliage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003ePear-shaped jade accents in white, peach and vermilion are set among the branches, with one in black. All the accents are natural, untreated jade, jadeite or nephrite. The bail is 14k yellow gold with a small floral cap. The pendant weighs 26 grams in total.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIn Chinese tradition, falling leaves carry a quiet meaning. The idiom 落叶归根 (luò yè guī gēn), “fallen leaves return to their roots,” speaks of coming home and of belonging to one’s origins. A single falling leaf can also signal the turning of the season (一叶知秋), and in classical poetry autumn leaves evoke the passage of time and the beauty of impermanence. Interpretations vary, but the image gives this piece a contemplative quality alongside its richness of material. A chain was not part of this acquisition, and none has been added, so the new owner can wear the pendant on a favorite chain they already own without paying for another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eRef:261152\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eItem Detail Summary\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eMetal\/Purity:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 14k yellow gold\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSetting:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e  Prong\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eGemstone:  \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJade\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGemstone Measurement: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 51mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFace\/Presence: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 56mm x 51mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eGem Cut:  \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRound, disc\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eChain Length: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e No chain\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTotal Weight: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e26 grams\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aloha Estate Jewelry","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47000662606020,"sku":"261152","price":820.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/1179\/8980\/files\/1152_261013-14k-neph-jade-tree-pend1.jpg?v=1791908915","url":"https:\/\/alohaestatejewelry.com\/products\/black-nephrite-jade-pendant-14k-gold-tree-falling-leaves","provider":"Aloha Estate Jewelry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
