NATURAL JADE: This is a high grade jade pendant necklace. The pendant is completely natural jadeite jade. Picture is of the actual item you will receive.
CARVING: The pendant is exquisitely hand carved jade (one of a kind!) in the form of the Guan Yin, the Buddhist "Goddess of Mercy."
Guan Yin is the Chinese translation of Avalokiteśvara, the Buddha of compassion. She also symbolizes harmony and compassion. When wearing the Guan Yin symbol, it is said to protect its wearer and endow them with wisdom, harmony, and compassion. In this piece, the Goddess of Mercy is depicted as meditating on a lotus symbolizing the peace, harmony, wisdom, and positive thoughts she brings to the world and the wearer of this piece.
The jade hand carving has a brilliant depiction of Guan Yin standing over a mountain scenery landscape. This depiction symbolizes Guan Yin's gaze upon the world as she protects the world and the living things in the world.
JADE COLOR: This piece has beautiful green and purple tones. It is semi-translucent stone and allows light to shine through when held against the light or sun. This allows for a "glowing effect" when light reflects on the stone, which is beautiful under natural sunlight. This is a premium quality in jadeite jade.
NECKLACE: Necklace is adjustable! One size fits all!
GIFT READY: Comes with a gift box. Perfect for gifts!
MINOR IMPERFECTIONS: This piece is hand carved and completely natural. It may have small imperfections from the natural stone or hand carving art. Depending on your lighting, monitor screen, or phone screen, the stone may look slightly different in color.
