Composed of minerals, prolonged wear can help replenish trace elements in the body. Hetian jade also promotes blood circulation and boosts metabolism, leading to improved skin complexion and a beautifying effect. Furthermore, it can alleviate irritability, promoting a sense of peace and energy, and positively influencing one's disposition over time. For those experiencing poor sleep, Hetian jade can be beneficial in improving sleep quality. It also helps to enhance the body's resistance, leading to better overall physical health. **Dwelling Buddha** The compassionate temple is touched by light, Moonlight solidifies into the Maitreya's lowered brow, blooming lotuses upon the collarbone. Rubies are unspoken Zen, A jadeite bead chain strings together half an acre of misty mountains, If you lower your gaze, you will see compassion descending— Fortune and blessings are warm and gentle, As tranquil as a full moon. **Product Description** This Maitreya Buddha pendant is exquisitely carved from rare, aged Hetian jade from Qinghai. Measuring 28.8mm in width and boasting a substantial thickness of 10.8mm, its ample form embodies the mellow warmth of time. The jade's hue delicately shifts between a lanolin-white and a subtle, pale lotus root pink, reminiscent of early snow kissed by dawn or mist veiled within a lotus pond. Its entire surface glows with the characteristic oily luster of aged, high-quality jade, feeling warm and soft to the touch, like solidified moonlight. The carving artistry draws from the essence of Ming and Qing dynasty statuary. The robust, rounded Maitreya Buddha sits with benevolent eyes and a gentle smile, hands resting naturally on his knees, embodying immense generosity. The facial features are particularly exquisite, with delicately curved eyebrows and fine eyes radiating a serene smile, and plump earlobes that signify his compassionate wish to guide all beings. The back of the Buddha is minimally carved, with the substantial 10.8mm thickness enhancing the jade's rich, oily texture. The 18K gold clasp is inlaid with rubies, their vibrant red akin to a beacon atop the Buddha's head, creating a captivating contrast with the jadeite bead chain. The 4mm apple-green jadeite beads are meticulously selected, each possessing a vibrant, fresh hue devoid of any mineral spots, exhibiting a natural, subtle gradation of color, much like a spring stream flowing through a jade valley. An 18K gold "Shun Ji" (auspicious blessing) charm, intricately engraved with wishes for smooth fortune and blessings, sways gently with movement, subtly appearing amidst the white jade beads alongside 6mm spinach-green jadeite round beads. 18K gold floral settings resembling entwined vines and scattered small silver-plated gold accessories not only secure the embellishments but also lend an antique charm. The ensemble captures the Maitreya's open-hearted generosity and the vibrant green of the jadeite bead chain, creating a tangible representation of "magnanimous tolerance and a perpetual smile." Viewed in the morning light, jade and gold shimmer in interplay; touched in the twilight, its warmth soothes the heart, as if accompanied by Buddhist chants—this is more than just jewelry; it is a miniature personal shrine to be cherished. **Specifications** Natural Qinghai Aged Hetian Jade Maitreya Buddha Pendant: 28.8mm × 28mm × 10.8mm 18K Gold Clasp with Ruby 18K Gold "Shun Ji" Auspicious Charm (with bail): Approx. 14mm × 6mm 18K Gold Floral Setting: Approx. 4mm Natural Apple-Green Jadeite Round Beads: 4mm Natural Spinach-Green Jadeite Round Beads: Approx. 5.5mm Natural White Jade Round Beads: Approx. 5.5mm, 4mm Other Accessories: Sterling Silver Plated K Gold Small Beads, Sterling Silver Plated Irregular Pieces **Purchase Notes** This product has been carefully selected.

Although jade is hard, it can easily crack upon impact. Even if invisible to the naked eye, this can damage the molecular structure within the jade, causing internal fractures. Keep away from dust as much as possible. For daily cleaning, use a soft brush or a damp cloth. If dirt or oil stains adhere to the surface, use lukewarm, very dilute soapy water to remove the grease, then rinse with clean water. Avoid using chemical degreasers. Refrain from contact with perfumes, chemical liquids, soaps, and body sweat. Avoid exposure to ice water and direct sunlight, as the expansion and contraction of jade can affect its quality. Jade requires a certain level of humidity to maintain its integrity. In summary, Hetian jade has "three prohibitions" and "four fears." The three prohibitions are: avoid oil, avoid strong odors (like fishy smells), and avoid dirt. The four fears are: fear of ice, fear of fire, fear of ginger water, and fear of sudden shock. Oil, strong odors, dirt, ice, fire, and ginger water can all damage the quality of Hetian jade. Fear of shock refers to the wearer being startled or accidentally dropping the jade, which can be fatally damaging to the stone.
