    PERLEI admires the beauty of natural rare stones, particularly Chinese jades. Fine jade artefacts reflecting the magical works of art of history ranging as far back from the Neolithic period are acquired over the past decade. PERLEI draws upon expertise and associations with scholars and collectors, and applies a systematic methodology in appraising each work piece of PERLEI Art.

    Certain unique pieces of acquired jades and rare stones, after passing through the brain of the Designer; the eyes of the Gemologist and the hands of the Masters, were transformed into intricate luxury pieces of PERLEI Jewellery.

    PERLEI enjoys and welcome the sharing of Jade artistry appreciation and techincal knowledge of stone authenication. A written appraisal consisting of the phyiscal description, historical context or citations developed from research will be provided for art piece purchased.

    **PERLEI adopts its name from the two simple Italian words ‘for YOU’. It’s pure and simple intention is to select a suitable artefact or create an unique jewellery piece just for the right YOU!
