Jade dragon pendant.
Protection, Feng Shui talisman.
Jade natural nephritis appraised.
Entirely handmade,

Expert natural jade.
As a gemologist graduated from the National Institute of Gemmology of Paris, all our stones are appraised and certified.
This nephrite type jade (Family of inosilicates, groups of amphiboles, continuous series between amhiboles and tremolites) comes from Yuxu Peak, Mongolian and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture of Haixi, Qinghai province, renowned for the quality of its nephrite jades.
This one could almost be similar to the "ink jade", very dark nephrite, but this piece is not opaque enough to bear this name. This dark green jade therefore bears the name "Ta Qing" unfortunately untranslatable.

Dimensions 60mm high by 42mm wide by 14mm thick
Weight of 257.72 carats.

In Buddhism, the dragon becomes protector of the Dharma, vairocana's vehicle, the white Buddha sitting in the east (or center). His throne supported by Dragons probably derives from the Chinese imperial throne. The Turquoise Dragon is the mount of a large number of protective deities, guardians of treasures and gods of rain and thunderstorms. As guardians of treasures, Sino-Tibetan Dragons are the counterparts of Indian nagas. The Tibetan term druk (tib.brug) means both "dragon" and "thunder". Bhutan, a Buddhist kingdom, is called Druk Yul (Land of the Dragon). Its inhabitants, the drukpas, take their name from the spiritual lineage drukpa kagyu, originally from Tibet. This lineage was established by the sage Tsangpa Gyaré who, having once observed nine dragons disappearing in the sky near Gyantse decided to establish the monastery of Ralung. In Tibetan Buddhism, the rise to heaven of a group of Dragons is a sign of good omen.
