(It was incredibly challenging to capture this in photos, but I did my best! >"<) If the above length is not suitable for your wrist size, please let me know your measurement before shipment, and I can adjust it for you! <How to Measure Your Wrist Circumference: You can use a piece of cotton string and gently wrap it around your wrist, close to the skin. Ensure it's not too tight or too loose, just lightly touching your skin without any gaps. Mark where the ends of the string meet. Lay the string flat and measure the length between the two marks with a ruler. This length is your wrist circumference.> <Gemstone Trivia 1> Turquoise (Faience) Turquoise varies in color from blue and green to light green and pale yellow, with blue being the most prized. Its beautiful hue and intricate patterns have made it a beloved gemstone in both Eastern and Western cultures. Although turquoise often displays web-like veining or black iron lines on its surface, these characteristics, when combined with a dense structure, contribute to its unique and admired beauty as an adornment. <Gemstone Trivia 2> The Quartz Family: Black Rutilated Quartz, Red Phantom Quartz, Red Jasper Agate, crystal, and chalcedony, which we often hear about, are all members of the quartz family. Their primary component is silicon dioxide (SiO2). However, due to differences in their crystalline structures, those with distinct crystal formations are called crystals, while those with less apparent crystal structures are termed chalcedony (agate is a type of chalcedony, specifically referring to chalcedony with layered or irregular linear patterns). Within the crystal category, variations in trace elements result in different colored crystals, such as amethyst, citrine, rose quartz, smoky quartz, and black quartz. When crystals encapsulate noticeable mineral inclusions, they form sought-after varieties like green phantom quartz, rutilated quartz, super seven quartz, strawberry quartz, rutile quartz, and more. Red jasper, also known as red brick stone, is another member of the quartz family. Besides being cryptocrystalline chalcedony, red jasper often contains over 20% foreign matter, leading to a wide range of colors and diverse patterns. <Gemstone Trivia 3> Hetian Jade (Nephrite) When discussing white jade, the most commonly heard term is Hetian white jade. This is because the white jade produced in the Hetian region has been renowned for its exceptional quality since ancient times. However, the current definition of Hetian jade encompasses any aggregate primarily composed of tremolite, meaning Hetian jade is also found in regions like Qinghai, Russia, Korea, and Canada. In contrast, the local mines in Hetian are nearly depleted due to centuries of extraction. Compared to jadeite (also known as hard jade), which is mainly composed of magnesium aluminum silicate and possesses a more rigid luster, Hetian jade (also known as soft jade) captivates with its soft, fine texture. Its unique oily luster fully expresses a warm, understated elegance. Consequently, China's nearly eight-thousand-year-old jade culture has historically referred to Hetian jade. The "Five Virtues of a Gentleman" symbolized by jade in ancient descriptions also pertains to Hetian jade. This is evident from the fact that imperial seals of past emperors were often crafted from high-quality Hetian jade, highlighting its historical significance. In recent years, imperial seals of Emperor Qianlong from the Qing Dynasty have fetched astronomical prices at international auctions, with several being carved from large, near-flawless pieces of Hetian jade.

While it retains the original form of coral, it becomes a silicon-calcium crystal composed entirely of minerals. This process is known as silicification. These beautiful stones, exhibiting distinct coral-like patterns, are then called coral jasper. Coral jasper displays unique coral textures but possesses a hardness equivalent to quartz crystal, making each piece a beautiful stone with one-of-a-kind patterns.
