Jade was precious to the Maya, who called it ya’ax chich--it signified life, fertility and power, and was considered even more precious than gold. Zandra Lorena Sajbin in Guatemala showcases the stone in these pretty dangle earrings, which are carved from natural dark green jade in the shape of leaves. The leaves swing from polished sterling silver kidney earwire hooks.
