About the Item

Depictions of dragons are used throughout the Japanese culture as symbols of strength, courage, and magic. This unique shakudo dragon pendant was originally a Japanese mixed metal menuki dating to the late 1800s transformed with a 14k gold backing and bail. The pendant measures 1.9 inches from top to bottom by 0.6 inches wide and it is in very good condition. It is accompanied by a 16 inch, 14k gold chain. The metal content of this necklace was verified via XRF (x ray analysis) and with jeweler's acids. Materials: 14k gold, mixed metal, shakudo.
