A bold necklace with an amazing and attention-getting focal area, and all the decorative polka dot patterns that distinguish natural Dendritic Tree Agate. Dendrites are intricate tree and fern-like inclusions of iron or manganese that range from deep forest to light green, and chartreuse. The dendrites occur in varying patterns within each milky to bright, or hazy white stones. Miriam chose natural British Columbian Green Jade (Nephrite) as accent stones. This versatile year-round statement piece is one-of-a-kind.
British Columbian Jade (Nephrite) is the trade name for a stone that ranges in color from light to dark green, with small, dark specks or veins. The black inclusions are thought to be either Iron or Pyrite - or a combination. It has translucent and opaque qualities, and a slightly crystalline grainy appearance with striking black spots or veins—all features found in natural Jadeite and Chloromelanite. Columbian Jade, despite its trade name, also might be a translucent variety of Serpentine. It is mined in Canada in the Green Mountain of British Columbia.
