Estate Carved Green Jade Apple Pendant 10K Gold Peridot Leaves Fruit Charm Garden Lover Gift

An apple a day, but make it jade. This fully three-dimensional carved jade apple is Granny Smith green, about an inch across, set with a 10K yellow gold stem and two marquise-cut peridot leaves. The color coordination is genuinely clever: the bright yellow-green of the peridot reads exactly like new leaves on an apple tree, so the whole thing holds together as one cohesive design rather than an afterthought assembly of parts.

In Chinese jade tradition, apples carved from jade carry symbolism of peace and abundance, which is part of why fruit forms have been a favorite subject for jade carvers for centuries. This one has real sculptural quality. The carving is fully in the round with a rounded, dimensional form and that slightly waxy satin finish that good jade develops with age. It reads like it belongs on a charm bracelet or layered on a chain as part of something larger.
