Very pretty and beautifully-crafted, highly-polished lavender jade and mother of pearl yin yang donut pendant with the Chinese character for good fortune in 14ct gold in the centre. The bale is also 14ct and the pendant hangs from a very fine 9ct gold chain.

 

Throughout history, this gemstone has been used in everything from ornamental carvings to jewellery with religious significance. In ancient China, it was thought wearing jade could cure diseases and ward off evil spirits, which is why they placed it on burial sites and why babies in Asian cultures are often gifted jade bracelets when they're born.

 

Yin Yang is a strong symbol to balance luck and fortune for its owner, so this pendant should bring double doses of good luck!

 

The pendant is marked on the bale’s inside 585 for 14ct. Approximate measurements; diameter 2.4cms, pendant drop 9ins, total weight pendant and chain 4.8g.

 

Bring some good fortune into your life or that of someone you love with this charming gem!
