Australian Black & White Hetian Jade Necklace – Auriga Heart Galaxy Collection

Two celestial bodies suspended within a constellation frame, expressing balance, connection, and the quiet beauty of the night sky.

Part of our Galaxy Collection, Auriga Heart takes inspiration from the constellation Auriga, known in astronomy as the Charioteer. The design interprets the constellation through a contemporary geometric framework, within which two contrasting jade spheres appear to float like twin stars sharing the same celestial journey.

A luminous white Hetian jade sphere from China is paired with a deep black Australian nephrite jade sphere, creating a striking dialogue between light and shadow, yin and yang, day and night.

Elegant yet symbolic, the design celebrates the relationships that give meaning to our lives and the invisible forces that connect us across time and space.

Design Inspiration & Symbolism

Auriga Heart draws inspiration from Auriga, a constellation associated with guidance, guardianship, and journeys across the night sky.

Rather than depicting the constellation literally, the design captures its emotional essence through two celestial forms held within a shared framework. The white Hetian jade sphere and black Australian jade sphere appear independent yet connected, reflecting the relationships and complementary forces that shape the universe.

The design symbolizes:

-Balance between light and darkness

-Harmony within contrast

-Partnership and connection

-Guidance and protection

-Unity through diversity

The geometric frame represents the constellation itself — an invisible structure that connects individual stars into a meaningful whole. Within this framework, the two jade spheres become a visual expression of duality and completeness.

The contrast between Australian black jade and Chinese white Hetian jade also reflects a meeting of cultures, traditions, and histories, brought together through contemporary design.
