Vintage Chinese Nephrite Spinach Jade Buddha Pendant | 1980s.
A delightful miniature Buddha pendant, carved from rich nephrite spinach jade and dating to the 1980s. Small in scale but big in character, this charming little figure is full of old-world symbolism.
The Buddha is beautifully hand-carved in deep green jade with natural variations, subtle translucency, and organic inclusions that speak to the stone’s authenticity. He wears a traditional robe, softly draped and carved with simple lines, and is topped with a sweet gold-plated brass conical hat, giving the piece a playful yet distinctly Eastern character. The jade is secured in a gold-plated brass mount with a matching bail, making it perfect for wearing on a chain, cord, or adding to a neckmess or charm bracelet.
The back of the pendant features a pierced gold-plated panel engraved with the Chinese character 福 (Fú).
福 (Fú) means:
*Good fortune
*Blessings
*Happiness
*Prosperity
*Abundance
This pairing is especially powerful — the Buddha for spiritual wellbeing and 福 for earthly blessings, creating a beautiful harmony between inner peace and outer prosperity.
*chain not included*
Measurements :The buddha pendant measures 2.4cm x 1.9cm and weight of 7.2 grams .
