Sourcing

Every piece of Zeneuf jade can be traced. Each one is logged under a reference number, tied to a record of where it came from: the artisan who carved it, the variety of jade, how it was treated, and where it was mined. Nothing leaves us sold as simply "jade," and nothing is described on a guess. If you ever want to know more about the piece in your hands, send us your order number and we'll answer from its record.

Care

Jade is one of the toughest stones in common wear, made to be worn every day and kept for years. It asks for very little: take it off before the shower, swimming, sport, or cleaning, and put on perfume and lotion before your jewelry, not after. To clean it, wipe it with a soft, damp cloth and dry it. Skip ultrasonic cleaners and jewelry dips. Keep it in its pouch, apart from other pieces, so harder stones can't scratch it.

Shipping & Returns

Shipping. Most orders ship within 24 hours. Pieces that take more handwork may need 2–3 days before they leave us.

We've made sending it back as easy as we can: request a return from your account or simply email us, and we'll send your return instructions within one business day. Send the piece back, and your refund follows within days of it reaching us. Would you rather swap it for something else? We'll ship the new piece to you free.

The jade

Natural spinach green nephrite jade

Each drop is cut slender from spinach green nephrite jade from Russia, deep and even in color. The stone is semi-translucent, so the thin tip glows when the light gets behind it, with the small black iron specks that mark natural spinach nephrite. The two drops are matched from the same material. Natural and untreated: no dye, no resin, no bleach. They hang from a fine line of sterling silver, plain or gilded.

The teardrop, worn for serenity

The teardrop is the shape of water, and water is the old image of a calm mind: patient, unforced, and always arriving. Jade teardrops are worn for serenity. At the ears they keep a small pause in view all day, a reminder not to hurry what does not need hurrying. Their benefit is steadiness for the wearer. Wear them for demanding weeks, or give them to someone who could use a little more quiet in their day.
