12.02 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Green Jade Pair from Burma (Myanmar)

These beautifully matched, translucent green jades speak to a lineage of skill and reverence that stretches back centuries, and their physical attributes alone tell a storied tale. The pair weigh 5.94 carats and 6.08 carats respectively, and each is fashioned into an elegant oval, with dimensions 16.10 x 12.17 x 3.33 mm and 16.11 x 12.15 x 3.41 mm. The tablet cut gives a refined, flat profile that mirrors ancient amulets and ceremonial plaques, and the medium color intensity with excellent polish allows light to dance through the material with a soft, inner glow. Importantly, these stones have received no enhancement, a fact that connoisseurs recognize as a marker of authenticity and enduring value. Originating from Burma, Myanmar, they carry the provenance of one of the most revered sources of jade, a region whose deposits have produced some of history's most prized and sought after jadeite.

The origin of these jades in Burma, Myanmar, adds immeasurable cultural and market value, because Burmese jadeite has long been synonymous with the highest standards of translucency, depth of tone, and classical beauty. From the imperial courts of East Asia to private collections, Burmese material has been prized for its ability to be carved and polished to a satin sheen that seems to hold light from within, and owning such a piece places one within a lineage of collectors who prize tradition, rarity, and heritage. The tablet cut of this pair evokes antique forms and lends itself to classic settings that will age gracefully, making these stones ideal for an heirloom commission that can be passed between generations. At The Natural Gemstone Company we emphasize provenance and natural integrity, and these untreated Burmese jades are presented with that stewardship in mind, along with guidance on setting, care, and historical context. For those who appreciate a gemstone that embodies both a cultural narrative and timeless beauty, this pair offers an elegant and meaningful choice, and we are pleased to assist with viewing, bespoke mounting options, and information about certification and preservation.
