12.19 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Cabochon Jade Pair from Burma (Myanmar)

This matched pair of Burmese jades from The Natural Gemstone Company offers a wonderfully classic and wearable combination of weight, size, and color, ideal for a refined set of earrings or a twin pendant design. The stones weigh 5.96 carats and 6.23 carats respectively, each fashioned into smooth oval cabochons that showcase the intrinsic beauty of the material. Their dimensions are very close, at 13.99 x 9.97 x 4.61 mm for the near twin, and 13.96 x 9.93 x 4.79 mm for its partner, which means they sit and move together with harmonious balance when set. These jades are opaque with a medium intense green tone that reads rich and natural under most lighting, and the cabochon cut enhances the depth and surface glow rather than relying on transparency. At eye level the clarity is graded as very slightly included, which contributes to their authentic, natural character without distracting from the overall color and polish. The finish is excellent, with a high quality polish that gives a smooth, reflective surface and a comfortable touch against the skin, and importantly, these pieces have no enhancements, so you are getting a natural Burmese origin pair that carries the well regarded provenance of Myanmar.

Visually and practically this pair is particularly well suited to classic jewelry styles where a strong, even appearance is desired. Because the two stones are so closely matched in weight and proportion, they are excellent candidates for bezel set earrings, where the cabochon profile and excellent polish can be shown off while enjoying secure protection. They also translate beautifully into stud mounts, drop earrings, or a mirror pendant set, and their moderate size makes them wearable for daily use without overwhelming. The warm, medium intense green will pair well with both yellow and white gold, and will also sit attractively against rose gold for a more contemporary contrast. The domed cabochon silhouette and opaque body are forgiving to the eye, so minor surface markings described by the very slightly included grade appear as part of the gem character rather than flaws, and the consistent color across the pair allows for design flexibility from minimal modern settings to more ornate, vintage inspired frames.

Caring for these Burmese jades is straightforward, and simple routine maintenance will keep them looking their best for generations. Avoid harsh chemicals and prolonged exposure to extreme heat, clean with mild soapy water and a soft cloth, and have settings inspected periodically by a professional jeweler to ensure stability. At The Natural Gemstone Company we stand behind the provenance and description of every gem we sell, and we can assist with tailored recommendations for mounting, setting depth, and bezel or prong designs to achieve the most secure and visually pleasing result for these cabochon ovals. If you would like certification or a gemological report, we can arrange documentation upon request to accompany your purchase, and our team is available to provide high resolution images, side view angles, or videos of the pair to help you evaluate their sheen and matching more closely. These two Burmese jades combine sincerity of origin, solid, wearable carat weights, and a classic cabochon presentation, making them a refined choice for a jewelry piece that honors natural character and enduring style.
