AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This decorative piece is a grape-shaped ornament made of Pakistani jade.

Material Details: The Pakistani jade has a warm, waxy luster. The grapes exhibit a mixture of colors and natural textures—light green with off-white flecks, milky white with brownish-yellow stripes, and some grains are accented with pale pink or dark brown. The surface is polished smooth and rounded, with a delicate feel.

These oval "grapes," made of Pakistani jade, are strung together with red string. This is a common handicraft among Pakistani artisans. Each string has natural textures and colors, making each piece unique. The edges of each "grape" are polished softly without sharp corners, and the knots are secured with red string. There are no obvious seams, making this a practical and handcrafted decorative piece that showcases the subtle differences in the natural stone's texture.
