jade pendant

Carved stone jewelry

A jade pendant is a piece of jewelry made from jade—a green or white ornamental stone—designed to hang from a chain or cord around the neck.

Jade pendants hold particular significance in East Asian cultures, where they're believed to bring good fortune, protection, or health.

The stone's cool, smooth texture and translucent quality make it prized for personal adornment: She never removed the jade pendant her grandmother gave her.
