The pendant is made from a rare Guatemalan Blue Jade Gemstone wrapped in solid copper wire, with a six-braided wire on the sides.
Blue jadeite is a precious stone that only occurs in Guatemala. It was once favored by the ancient Mayans who considered it a symbol of status and wealth, as well as a passport to the afterlife. As a result, it adorned the tombs of the royal and the prestigious.
Keep in mind that copper naturally darkens over time, but you can clean it with a jewelry-polishing cloth if necessary. Additionally, there are photos included that show both the back of the pendant and the pendant next to a ruler for size comparison.
