I have added an antique Chinese gold vermeil clothing decoration to the front of a dark green piece of serpentine. The pendant is 1 1/2” wide. This one of a kind pendant is drops 3” from a black natural leather cord that adjusts from 16” to 32” using slip knots so it can be worn a variety of lengths.
These beautifully worked silver or gold vermeil pieces were used to close the old Chinese robes or as decoration.
