This jadeite carving of a Laughing Buddha is a striking showcase of fine craftsmanship with exquisite natural jadeite. High translucency of the jadeite highlights the vivid green hue that covers the lower portion of the jadeite carving.
In natural lighting, the combination of green and good translucency imparts a watery lustre to the jadeite, allowing the green jadeite to glow radiantly. Placement of the green portion is nicely positioned, complementing the symbol of "abundance" that the carving represents.
The Laughing Buddha is one of the most well-known symbols in Buddhism representing happiness and abundance in good luck and fortunes. Carvings of the Laughing Buddha will depict a broadly smiling figure thus the nickname. In Feng Shui, wearing a Laughing Buddha carving brings the wearer good fortunes, happiness and abundance in all things good in life.
This jadeite Laughing Buddha pendant is set with 18K white gold. The pendant bail takes the shape of a lotus and sparkles beautifully with natural diamonds. The main photos are taken in natural lighting and there are 2 additional photos taken with indoor lighting to showcase how the jade pendant will look like indoors.
As a note, the gold chain shown in the photos is not included in this product listing.
