Long Tiger’s Eye Bead Necklace with Carved Chinese Prosperity Motif, 90 cm
Long Tiger’s Eye Bead Necklace with Carved Chinese Prosperity Motif, 90 cm
An elegant tiger’s eye necklace featuring polished beads measuring approximately 8–10 mm, complemented by a distinctive Chinese\-style carved accent\. Honey\-gold bands contrast with deep brown tones, creating the shifting play of light known as chatoyancy\.
The elongated accent appears to depict a stylised Chinese guardian beast, probably a pixiu, accompanied by a traditional cash\-coin motif\. This auspicious imagery evokes prosperity, good fortune and the safeguarding of wealth, bringing symbolic interest to the necklace’s sculptural design\.
Measuring approximately 90 cm end to end and weighing 105 grams, the necklace offers a generous long\-line drape with a pleasing sense of substance\. Individually knotted beads display natural variations in colour and banding, while their polished surfaces catch the light with movement\.
The carved accent can be worn to one side or positioned towards the centre\. Attractive on both men and women, the necklace makes a distinctive statement alone and layers beautifully with a larger tiger’s eye strand\.
