9.69 Ct. Bluish Green Jade from Burma (Myanmar)

A singular and timeless jewel, this opaque bluish green jade bead captures the essence of quiet luxury and discerning taste. Weighing 9.69 carats and shaped in a perfectly rounded bead, its dimensions are 11.29 by 11.33 by 10.82 millimeters, a proportion that reads as both substantial and elegantly wearable. The gem is cut in the classic bead style and finished with a drilled cut that allows for immediate transformation into a cherished piece of jewelry. Its medium color intensity lends a depth of tone that is refined rather than loud, and the excellent polish imparts a soft and luminous surface that invites the eye. This jade is untreated, with no enhancement, and its provenance traces to Burma, Myanmar, a region celebrated for producing some of the world’s most esteemed jades. The combination of size, native color, and immaculately smooth finish creates an object that is immediately recognizable as something rare and worth preserving.

Presenting this bead as a gift elevates the act of giving to a statement about the recipient and the giver alike.

It is the kind of gift that transcends a trend, one that marks an important occasion with substance and meaning. The medium color intensity ensures versatility, harmonizing with warm and cool metals and pairing gracefully with both muted and more vivid accents. Its drilled cut makes it adaptable to many design visions, and its opaque, soothing bluish green hue conveys a sense of calm confidence.
