French necklace or sautoir in jadeite and agate, silk thread

About the Item

Amazing and Exotic Chinese necklace or sautoir crafted from jadeite and agate, tied around the neck with a silk cord. This is an ancestral-inspired piece, made with carefully carved and polished jade and agate stones. The pendant is composed of two main elements: a circular agate disc and a lower figure carved from jadeite with openwork details, depicting mythological motifs or sacred animals typical of oriental art. The lower jade carving displays meticulous craftsmanship, with curved shapes that evoke dynamism and spirituality. It depicts two koi fish, symbols in Chinese culture of fortune, success, and prosperity. The legend of the Dragon Fish tells of how koi fish are able to swim against the current in the Yellow River and thus transform into dragons. The use of jade, a sacred stone in Chinese culture, highlights its connection with protection, wisdom, and vital energy. The pendant is secured with an elegant knot made of dark silk cord.
