Purchased from a Chinese Hetian jade specialty store, this is a pendant from Xinjiang, China. It is made from precious riverbed stone (籽料), and is not cut from a larger stone, but made from a single, independent stone. The carving is also done by hand by a craftsman. Of course, you can see the small, uneven texture on the surface of the stone, which is proof of its authenticity. The skin color also has a complex hue that is impossible to achieve with artificial coloring. There is also a water plant pattern on the back, which is proof of its authenticity. There is a hole for threading, so you can put a string through it and use it as a pendant or bracelet! ★ Hetian Jade Pendant Origin: Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China ★ Size Details Length: 33mm Width: 20mm Thickness: 10mm Weight: 10g I love Hetian jade and have bought a lot, but my collection has grown too large, so I will be listing them little by little. I hope to meet someone who has a connection with it. You can see a list of Hetian jade items for sale at #otama和田玉 ● I buy Hetian jade directly from processing companies in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China, or in Nanyang City, Henan Prefecture, which is a major processing center in China. <<<<All items for sale are genuine!>>>>> I have spent several years looking for stores that handle genuine items at reasonable prices.
