AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A finely worked natural jadeite (翡翠) pendant, carved in openwork on both faces with a dragon (龍). NGTC certification confirms it as untreated Type A (A貨) jadeite.

The dragon is carved in layered relief, with a flowing mane, clawed limbs and cross-hatched scales. Its body twists through pierced openings and cloud-like scrollwork. A raised, lobed cartouche frames the scene. The outer band is polished smooth, and its sides carry further carved detail. Both faces are fully finished, so the pendant looks good from either side and shows real depth and movement in the hand.

In Chinese tradition the dragon is the most auspicious of creatures. It stands for strength, good fortune and success, and dragon pendants have long been worn as protective talismans.

The stone is a soft light green. Against light it turns luminous and translucent, showing the stone’s natural texture and fine natural markings. Under magnification it has the fibrous interweaving structure typical of genuine jadeite. It is a substantial pendant, about the size of a large coin, and works as a statement piece on its cord or on a chain of your choice.
