Description from the seller
Nephrite jade pendant – engraved landscape relief
A jade nephrite pendant with meticulous craftsmanship, modeled in a very light and uniform green, featuring the typical milky luminosity of the most compact nephrites. The surface has been carefully polished to achieve a subtle shine that highlights the details of the carving: a traditional landscape with mountains, pines, pavilions, and a bridge, elements that convey calmness, balance, and continuity. The relief is deep but not heavy, built on soft lines that follow the natural structure of the stone. This approach allows the nephrite to showcase its density and strength, qualities that have made it a symbolic stone in many Asian cultures for centuries.
Uncertified jade has always been associated with values such as protection, stability, and inner clarity. In Far Eastern traditions, it is believed to represent integrity, calm strength, and long life. For this reason, it is often used in amulets, talismans, and personal objects meant to be kept and passed down. The pendant is completed with a braided cord and a small sphere in a coordinated tone, adding a subtle detail without detracting from the stone. A piece that combines aesthetics, symbolism, and craftsmanship, suitable for both everyday wear and collection.
