Jade setting

Types of jade settings

Jade setting is a popular precious metal setting that showcases and protects the jade stone. Different types of jade settings are available for buyers, depending on their customers' diverse needs and preferences. Some of these jade settings include:

• Prong setting

  In a prong setting, the prongs or claws hold the jade securely and are crafted into fine details. This kind of setting is mostly used in rings where the jade is shaped into a cabochon. The shape could be oval, round, triangular, or any other customized shape. The prongs lift the jade above the band, allowing light to penetrate and thus enhancing its beauty. At the same time, the prongs hold the jade securely so it cannot fall off easily. When purchasing prong jade rings in wholesale, buyers should check the quality of the prongs to ensure they are strong enough to hold the jade securely.

• Bezel setting

  The bezel setting is another popular type of jade setting. This setting has a metal strip surrounding the jade fully or partially. The metal strip holds the jade flat against the mounting surface. When the strip goes all the way around the jade, it creates a protective edge that is smooth and rounded. The metal strip can be plain or decorated with intricate details to make it more attractive. The bezel setting is mostly used in pendants and earrings. The design offers a modern and sleek appearance, and the jade is less likely to get damaged or dirty when set in a bezel.

• Channel setting

  In a channel setting, the jade stone is placed in a metal channel that has no prong or bezel to hold the stone. The channel has two walls that hold the stones securely. The channel setting is commonly used in jade bracelets and rings. The design holds the stones securely and offers a smooth, continuous surface that is very comfortable to wear.

How to choose jade settings

Wholesale buyers have many options for choosing jade engagement rings. Here are some things to think about before buying in bulk.

• Quality of Jade

  The quality of the jade should be high. Look for jade that is translucent or see-through. It should have a bright green color. The quality of the jade affects how desirable the ring is and how much it costs.

• Craftsmanship

  The way the jade is set in the ring is important. The setting should hold the jade securely and not scratch it. It should also let light in so the jade sparkles. A well-crafted setting makes the ring look better and last longer.

• Setting Style

  There are many styles of jade rings. Some styles show off the jade more than others. The ring should match the jade's quality and the buyer's tastes. The most popular styles should be ordered first, but unique styles can be offered if there is enough skilled staff to make them.

• Metal Choice

  The metal used in the setting affects the overall look of the ring. Some metals, like white gold, make jade look greener. Other metals, like rose gold, create a warmer look. Understanding how the metal will affect the final look of the ring is important when choosing the metal to use in the setting.

• Ethical Sourcing

  Many jade ring buyers want to know where the jade came from. They want to make sure it was mined in an ethical way. Some companies may provide this information on their websites. They may also have certificates showing that the jade was mined ethically.

• Customization Options

  Wholesale buyers may want to order custom-made rings for their customers. They may want rings that are different from the ones offered by other companies. Finding a company that can make custom rings is important. The company should have the tools to make the custom rings and the skilled staff to make them.

While jade rollers have become a popular skincare tool, jade setting powder is a more recent addition to the beauty care line. It is used to set makeup and reduce shine while giving a subtle glow to the face. Below are some easy steps on how to use a jade setting powder and how to use it.

• How to use jade setting powder

  Below are some steps to follow when using a jade setting powder

  • First, apply a primer to the face to create a barrier and allow the setting powder to adhere better.
  • Next, use a brush or sponge to apply foundation, concealer, or any cream makeup to the face.
  • Then, gently press the brush or sponge into the powder and tap off any excess powder.
  • Begin by applying the powder to the areas where cream products were applied, such as under the eyes, on the cheeks, and on the nose.
  • Finally, use a sweeping motion to apply the powder to the rest of the face to control shine.

• How to install jade rollers

  There is no specific installation process for jade rollers; they only need to be stored in a safe place after use. However, they can be used in different ways and on different parts of the face, such as the forehead, cheeks, under-eye, nose, and chin. When using, one can roll from the center of the face to the sides and from the top to the bottom.

• Product safety

  Regarding the product safety of jade rollers and jade setting powder, they are generally safe for use if they are made from quality materials. When using jade rollers, users should be gentle on the face, as excessive pressure can cause bruises. Also, the jade stone should not be pressed into the skin, as it can cause irritation. Setting powder contains natural ingredients and is generally safe for most skin types. However, it can cause skin reactions in people with sensitive skin. It is important to check the ingredients list and choose a product that does not contain impurities.
