About the Item

This vintage fish pendant is such a wonderful piece to collect, or gift. The idea of fish as good luck exists in many cultures but most likely has its origins in China, where the character for fish (yu 鱼) is pronounced the same as the Chinese character for surplus (yu 余), thus the connection between fish and prosperity. Also, Pisces friends, this little fish is especially perfect for you! The figural fish is beautifully articulated, so the body moves— almost like magic! I love that he has a red stone for his eye. The color of the metal is very iridescent, with tones of both gold and silver, so it works on a chain of any tone, and is easy to mix with other jewelry. Measures 34 mm total with bales; the actual fish is 27 mm long. Comes with Sterling Silver Chain! * The Vintage 14k Gold Jade Fish Pendant and Vintage Sterling Silver Bird Choker pictured are also available in my shop. Please inquire. Great vintage condition, with natural variations in the metal tone, all of which contribute to its unique beauty. With any questions about the specific condition or size, please send a message for additional photos or measurements, as all sales are final. Please note this is costume jewelry and not of precious metals or stones. *IF YOU REQUIRE EXPRESS SHIPPING (domestic or international), please contact me for my best quote! Same-day or next-day delivery (or pickup) is in most cases available in the NYC area. @VERYBREEZY — Follow along on Instagram for exclusive access to new vintage arrivals
