Australian Black Jade Pendant – Gilded Shadow | Origin Collection

Where warm gold embraces ancient black jade, nature reveals its most elegant contrast.

Part of our Origin Collection, the Gilded Shadow Pendant celebrates one of nature's simplest yet most captivating relationships—the meeting of light and shadow.

A polished bar of Australian black nephrite jade is held within a clean architectural frame of gold-plated sterling silver. The design is intentionally restrained, allowing the natural richness of the jade and the warmth of gold to create a timeless visual balance.

Minimalist yet distinctive, Gilded Shadow is designed for those who appreciate quiet luxury, honest materials, and enduring craftsmanship.

Design Inspiration & Symbolism

Nature is full of beautiful contrasts.

Golden sunlight falls across dark stone. Dawn breaks over ancient mountains. Light gives form to shadow, while shadow gives depth to light.

The Gilded Shadow Pendant captures this relationship through two timeless materials.

The Australian black jade represents the enduring strength of the earth—formed deep beneath the Australian landscape over millions of years. The gold-plated silver frame reflects light, warmth, and renewal, gently embracing the jade without overpowering it.

The open architectural setting allows the stone to remain the focal point, celebrating its natural beauty rather than concealing it.

The design symbolises:

-Balance between strength and elegance

-Light emerging from darkness

-Simplicity and refinement

-Connection to nature

-Timeless beauty
