A necklace of old, richly patterned dzi beads, traditionally treasured in Tibetan and Himalayan cultures as talismans of protection, good fortune, and spiritual well-being. At its center hangs a carved jade axe-form pendant in the style of China’s Neolithic Hongshan culture, where jade held profound ceremonial importance. The axe form evokes authority, strength, and the symbolic power of objects created for purposes beyond adornment.
