True, North Strong and Green®
Among the toughest stones on earth
Jade's interlocking structure is what jewellers and carvers have relied on for superior toughness for millennia.
Oil and Acid Resistant
Untouched by oils and acids in daily use — the surface holds its polish.
Does not stain
Its tough, naturally occurring fibre makes it non-porous — it keeps its depth of colour and requires no chemical sealers.
Does not shatter
It is the toughest naturally occurring fibre on earth, called an Amphibole Mineral, and unlike granite, marble and quartz it has no cleavage planes to shatter along.
The piece
One boulder. One basin.
Nothing repeated.
The form follows the stone. The top is levelled and polished, the sides are left as the boulder came, and the decoration is cut into the surface by hand — so this sink exists once, and cannot be made again in the same way.
The basin
Polished to a deep, reflective finish. In natural light the stone reads almost black, with green held inside it.
The carved motif
A single carved figure set into the polished top at the narrow end of the piece — the designer's mark, in the stone itself.
The incised line
A fine branch, cut by hand across the polished surface and running toward the point of the boulder.
The basin among ferns
The bowl with its drain set into the stone, ferns at its edge — the carving running on across the polished top toward the point.
The hummingbirds
Two hummingbirds worked into the branch line at the tip of the stone — the wildlife of this Pacific Northwest design, cut by hand.
The whole piece
From above, the full outline of the boulder — the round basin at one end, the branch and its hummingbirds running to the point, fern and moss at its edges.
The stone
“Jade is one of the toughest stones on earth — oil and acid resistant, it does not stain, and it does not shatter.”
Both a durable material and a precious stone, jade is ideal for high-end interiors. It asks nothing of the room around it and gives the room its weight.
This piece is being offered by Investment Interiors, the luxury interiors line of The New Sun Design Group — designed by its founder, Sam Michael Hesse, who offers fine art fixtures direct to collectors for their home, office and portfolio from Canadian Green Jade and Brazilian Black Jade.
