This is a Chinese braided knot ornament. It is a traditional craft made using Chinese braiding techniques. It is believed to bring good luck and ward off evil, and is displayed during festivals such as the Lunar New Year. I received this as a souvenir and have been storing it at home. There are no noticeable stains, but the tassel part is a bit worn. Size: 43 x 6 cm The photos make the red color appear stronger, but the color in the second photo is closer to the actual item. Please understand that this is a used item that has been stored at home before purchasing. #ChineseCrafts #Amulet #HangingOrnament
