Handcrafted Jade Disk Necklace

This emblem is a typical Chinese shape for Jade objects: a disk called "bi". Unlike most "bi" that are made from white jade and show a hole in the middle of the piece, this jade disk pendant has a touch of pale green. Chinese tradition associates the "bi" with heaven. "Bi" disks are consistently found with heaven and earth-like imagery, suggesting that the disk's circular shape also bears symbolic significance.

Competitor's price is $35.99-$39.99. Disk is approximately 1.5" diameter. Necklace is approximately 30" length.
