About us
We are two artists who design and sell jewelleries made from coral jade. By mere chance have we encountered coral jade and immediately became fascinated by their breathtaking patterns and colours. We start to study them and found the origin for this kind of magic fossils stones, equipped with experience and expertise to identify high quality stones, we have started our own work studio in Zurich.
Imagine wearing such unique jewelleries, that each pattern exists only once, that nobody will ever wear the same thing as you, pretty amazing , isn’t?!
We can’t be the only ones, that’s why we bring them to you as well!
Why shop from us?
We believe in quality, that is the most important aspect for us and for you. The jewelleries are handmade in Switzerland, we hand pick each stone used in our products, and each stone is examined by magnifying lens, so only the perfect colour and pattern combined with jade quality is presented to you. Having gained profound knowledge and vast experience through studying and dealing with coral jade for years, we are able to select stones that are 100% natural, and are amongst the best quality.
During the stone selection process, we reject those that have low-density, dark calcified and low-quality stones that are near the surface of an un-cut stone (what we call skin stones).
We resolutely oppose those raw materials that are dyed with chemicals and then baked at high temperature to change and enrich the colour of coral jade. That way, although the stones would appear more colourful, harmful chemicals would be in contact with your skin, furthermore, the stones would lose their translucent quality.

About our Freshwater Pearls
Pearls are divided into two categories: seawater pearls and freshwater pearls.The yield of saltwater pearls is extremely low, requiring an average of three shells to produce one pearl. In contrast, freshwater pearls have a higher yield, with an average of 6-8 pearls per shell. As a result, seawater pearls are much rarer and therefore more expensive than freshwater pearls.
In the late 19th century, Japan developed pearl cultivation technology, leading to the prevalence of cultured pearls in today's market. However, only a select few pearls meet the criteria of being considered precious. These pearls are perfectly round and free from any imperfections. They are truly one in a million.
Naturally grown pearls, on the other hand, are not perfectly round and have a random luster. However, these pearls are more affordable compared to their carefully cultivated counterparts.
Rest assured, the pearls used in our products are genuine freshwater pearls. Their natural shape and beautiful luster are a testament to the beauty bestowed by nature.
