Antique Mother-of-Pearl Gambling Counter Reversible Pendant in Blackened Silver
About the Item
This eye-catching and reversible pendant features an antique mother-of-pearl gambling counter set with a blackened silver bail. Gaming counters, or "chips," such as this one were originally carved in China in the 18th century for export to Britain, where they were used the way we use poker chips. This beautiful gaming chip was hand-carved with a floral design on one side, while the reverse was engraved with a delicate moth, symbolizing long life. The chip has scalloped edges that echo the intricately engraved border. Handcrafted by our Master Jewelers in Los Angeles, this pendant is a unique yet timeless representation of wearable, historical art!
2mm, 16-inch silk cord included.
This pendant measures 3/4" in width and 2-7/8" in length, including the bail.

Antique Mother-of-Pearl Gaming Counter Pendant in Gold, Blackened Silver & Steel
By Sarosi By Timeless Gems
Located in Los Angeles, CA
This striking necklace features an antique, mother-of-pearl Chinese gambling counter dating back to the 18th Century. The oval gaming counter is set in a striking blackened silver setting that is accented with an 18k yellow gold rivet and bail.

Originally carved in China for export to Britain, gaming counters were used like we would use poker chips.

These are original counters that we have made into an elegant line of jewelry we call our "Eastern Gates Collection." Each gaming counter is original and unique.
The designs in this collection were inspired by the architecture of ancient China; each gaming counter is set in hand-engraved 18k yellow gold with brightly polished silver (and/or blackened silver). The pieces all complement each other beautifully and are perfect for wearing alone or mixing and matching in various combinations. Wonderful conversation pieces that display beautiful craftsmanship, rich history, and a lasting appreciation of art! Handcrafted by our jewelers in Los Angeles.
