The jade-topaz-amber necklace is an ornate piece of jewellery worn by [[Kaleithi|The Blessed Kaleithi]], distinguished by its design of interlocking spirals arranged to suggest the form of a tree, worked in jade, topaz, and amber. It is a distinctive personal adornment associated with a single named wearer in the series, and its presence in the narrative is tied to a ceremonial rite in which the act of removing it carries procedural weight.

Across the span of ''Lives of Bitter Rain'', the necklace appears only once, in a scene where Kaleithi participates in a rite and sets the necklace aside as part of the ceremony's established procedure. Its narrative role is therefore confined to a single moment of removal, marking a threshold within the ritual rather than driving any extended arc. The object's significance lies in what its presence and deliberate disavowal signify about the wearer's relationship to the ceremony, rather than in any active function it performs.

== The Object ==
=== Description ===
The necklace is an ornate piece of jewellery composed of three materials: jade, topaz, and amber. Its form consists of interlocking spirals arranged to suggest the shape of a tree. It is worn as a necklace, i.e. around the neck, by [[Kaleithi|The Blessed Kaleithi]]. - Lives of Bitter Rain, ch 7

=== What It Does ===
The necklace carries no stated mechanical or magical function. Its narrative purpose is procedural: during a rite in which Kaleithi participates, she removes the necklace and sets it aside as part of the ceremony's established procedure. The act of removal marks a step within the ritual's sequence. - Lives of Bitter Rain, ch 7

=== Provenance ===
The text records only that the necklace is worn by [[Kaleithi|The Blessed Kaleithi]]. Its maker, prior owners, and ultimate fate beyond the scene in which it is set aside are not specified. - Lives of Bitter Rain, ch 7
