Tiered Jade Dragon Charm Necklace

Created by artisans in Shanghai, this beautiful statement necklace features three early 20th-century jade pendants, likely once looped over robe fastenings as a decorative charm. Valued for its rarity and lustrous appearance, jade has been thought to symbolize excellence and purity of human virtue. Worn as jewelry or as a protective charm, the stone was thought to imbue a person with a clear mind and pure spirit, and to guard against evil spirits or illness. These mottled green jade pendants are carved with an abstract image of a dragon, a traditional symbol of power, prosperity, and goodness. Strung with intricately hand-knotted cord, these tiered jade charms become a striking piece of contemporary jewelry.
