Description
●Jet (black amber) is a gemstone formed by driftwood fossilized under high pressure over a long period of time. Its softness and lightness make it easy to work with, and it has been fashioned into jewelry since ancient times.
When polished, it develops a unique, soft, and deep luster. In Europe and the United States, jet black is often used to describe its jet-black color.
●When Queen Victoria of England lost her husband, Prince Albert, and mourned for over 10 years, she wore jet jewelry, leading to its recognition as formal mourning jewelry.
Since the Meiji era, jet has also been adopted as part of the official morning jewelry of the Japanese Imperial Family, and it is becoming increasingly common in Japan for general black formal wear.
Because it is a lightweight gemstone, jet necklaces are also popular because they don't strain the neck.
