A circle of warm, autumnal-colored jade has an applied flower of gold and jade. Gradient tones of orange, yellow and pale green enrich the jade circle. The 14k yellow gold flower sits atop the circle, with celadon green petals that compliment the circle's colors. A decorative gold bale allows the pendant to be worn on a chain. Circa 1960.
The simple jade circle with a hole in the middle, sometimes called a donut, is the most iconic Chinese jade design. It represents heaven, the circle of life and the continuity of energy. The circular shape is also believed to symbolize unity, wholeness and perfection.
Details.....The pendant measures 1.16" in diameter, 1.50" with bale. In Very Good Vintage Condition. You should always expect some wear on vintage and antique pieces; we consider it part of the charm.
