Comedy-Tragedy Carved Nephrite Jade Ring
This unique nephrite jade ring features a cleverly carved motif inspired by the comedy-tragedy masks of drama and human nature. A turn of the ring changes the perspective from one to the other. The beautiful, deep green stone, 23.72mm x 17.23mm, resides within a sleekly formed setting of warm 14K yellow gold that hugs the finger nicely.
Nephrite jade’s classification of having a strong fibrous interlocking structure makes it suitable for carving. It also has an ancient cultural heritage and is prized for auspicious qualities. This wonderful ring is currently a size 8 and can be resized to suit.
