This is the "jade" necklace I knotted a couple of weeks ago, on emerald-green silk—using thirty-four strands.

The beads are nominally "jade"—but I can't say what actual material. Their color is a uniform bright deep green, and the texture of the stone is translucent with a crystalline pattern. Whatever they are, it's a pretty strand of beads.

I'm showing them close up as I received them, followed by the finished necklace.
