Our Product Photos
Each piece in our photo galleries is shown as it is displayed in our shop at Cambridge. For your convenience we have shown an approximate size for each carving displayed. The size shown is the longest dimension, usually the length.
Cords
Each bone and greenstone carving is supplied with a high quality polyester waxed cord, which is resistant to wear and breakage. Some larger carvings are fitted with a 3-plait cord which has been handmade by our skilled staff at Cambridge. A number of smaller carvings are fitted with a braided cord, which is in proportion to the size of those carvings.
If you would prefer a different coloured cord to the one shown on a carving, we may be able to change the cord at no charge to you, provided that it is not a carving which has the cord lashed to it. We also display carvings with extra special plaiting which greatly enhance the appearance of the bone art. You will find these under “Bone/Plaited Range”. We will have additional 3-plait cords available for purchase on the website under the category "Cords".
Jewellery Fittings
In our .925 sterling silver range, all earring fittings are sterling silver. The necklace chains are 18 inches long, and likewise are sterling silver. In our gold plated range, all earring fittings are hypo allergenic. The necklace chains are 18 inches also, with a long lasting gold plate.
Jewellery Boxes
Each item priced at $40 or more is supplied with it’s own jewellery box, which is a high quality leatherette box with silk pad. Our company name “ Cambridge Shell and Jade” is printed on the silk liner of each box for all our greenstone and bone carvings. If you wish to purchase a jewellery box for items priced at under $40, these are available at the reduced price of $3.00 each. All jewellery comes already boxed free of charge.
Meanings
Each carving comes to you with a written meaning. You will find the meanings at the head of each section of the products range for Bone Carvings and for Jade Carvings.
