This stunning pendant features a beautifully fretted antique mother-of-pearl gambling counter set in precious 18k yellow gold, accented with a rich blue kyanite cabochon. Gambling counters, or gaming chips as they were also called, were originally hand-carved in China for export to Britain where they were used the way we use poker chips. Intricately carved with scenery depicting life in ancient China, this particular piece also features gorgeous ornamental openwork along its borders. It has been set against a bright 18k yellow gold frame whose design echos the exquisitely detailed carving. The kyanite cabochon gives an additional element of luxury to this elegant pendant. A lovely conversation piece with historical significance, this pendant was handcrafted in 18k yellow gold by our Master Jewelers in Los Angeles. Chain sold separately.

Pendant measures 2" from the top of the bail to the bottom of the rectangular bezel, 3/4" in width. Chain sold separately.
