Burmese Jade Stud Earrings
Jade is made up of 2 types of stones: jadeite and nephrite. Until 1863, the 2 stones were thought to be the same until chemical analysis determined they were different stones. Jadeite jade is rarer and more sought after than nephrite, especially for jewelry. Approximately 70% of the world’s jadeite comes from Myanmar (formerly Burma). These green Burmese jadeite jade pushbacks feature sterling silver (92.5% silver content) posts and earring backs.
