Attract good luck and blessing to you with this handcrafted Chinese Blessings Necklace from World Peace Jewelry. If you like things that are perfect, bright and shiney new, this necklace may not be for you. This is a 1970's vintage pendant. Hand painted porcelain with a delicate floral design and the Chinese characters for wealth, good fortune, happiness and longevity. Absolutely gorgeous. I have just a few of these in my stash and when they're gone, they're gone.
For this lucky necklace I've hand wire wrapped celedon green semi translucent Serpentine Jade and gold pierced filigree beads to gold chain.
Note: I love vintage things and often incorporate them into my work. This pendant is one of a very few that I've been hoarding for years. I purchased them, along with some others, many years ago and have never seen anything like them since.
