This small round jade pendant is 3/4 inch across and shows the Buddha at its center. It is handcrafted in Thailand and comes ready to wear on a cord.
In Thailand and Laos, Buddhist pendants like this are part of everyday life. Many people wear one daily, and they are popular gifts at Songkran, Loy Krathong and temple visits. Thai custom holds that a Buddha image received as a gift should be handled with respect and passed on with care rather than sold. Anyone can wear it, and the soft green of the jade gives a quiet, meaningful touch to any outfit.
Care: wear the pendant above the waist as a sign of respect, wipe it with a soft cloth, and store it in a clean pouch. Ships from our Oxnard, California warehouse.
