This exquisite antique ring showcases a certified genuine Burmese jadeite jade cabochon, displaying the highly sought-after "Moss in Snow" (白底青) pattern, set in a timeless 18K gold mounting. The 13.45 x 8.35 x 3.45mm jadeite cabochon exhibits a captivating translucent quality, with delicate green patches floating naturally against a translucent white ground, creating the cherished moss-in-snow effect. The ring weighs 3.87g and bears a '祥盛' (Xiáng Shèng) engraving on the band, suggesting its origins from the 1950s-1960s Hong Kong, when master craftsmen from mainland China established prestigious jewelry workshops in the region. The Type A certification from HKJSL confirms this stone's natural beauty is completely untreated and unenhanced. Jadeite jade is revered for its deep cultural significance, symbolizing prosperity, protection, and harmony. This hand-selected Burmese jade displays the classic "Moss in Snow" pattern that is particularly prized in Imperial jade traditions, where the contrast between the green and white base represents the perfect balance of yin and yang. The subtle floating effect of the green moss-like patterns against the snow-white ground is considered one of the most desirable combinations in fine jadeite. The vintage 18K gold setting features intricate prongs characteristic of mid-century Chinese jewelry making, when traditional designs were being adapted into more modern settings while retaining classical elements. The craftsmanship reflects the exceptional skill of Chinese artisans during this transformative period. A true statement piece, this ring exudes both luxury and tradition, making it a meaningful addition to any fine jewelry collection. The "Moss in Snow" pattern is not just aesthetically stunning but also carries deep symbolic meaning in Asian culture, representing the persistence of life and hope even in challenging times. The oval cabochon cut enhances the stone's natural translucency while maximizing the visual impact of the floating green patches. This ring represents not only a beautiful piece of jewelry but also a piece of Chinese jewelry-making history, dating from a significant period when traditional craftsmanship met modern styling. Whether worn as a personal talisman or gifted to a loved one, this vintage Burmese jadeite ring...
