Hand Painted Chinese Pendant

About the Item

A small, intricately hand painted Chinese porcelain pendant, with extraordinarily detailed tiny images of a fisherman tending his basket and net. The skill required for this delicate tiny brushwork cannot be overstated. A really sweet piece, and a truly unusual pendant. Imagine this on a long chain or simple leather cord. This piece will not go unnoticed. It is sure to spark conversation about the artist's hand and the history it evokes.
