Certified Natural Hetian Qingyu Bawang Pixiu Round Pendant – Deep-Relief Green Nephrite Wealth Guardian Medallion

A substantial round Bawang Pixiu pendant carved from natural Hetian Qingyu nephrite, built around deep sculptural relief rather than a flat engraved surface. The dense celadon-green stone is shaped into a rounded medallion and finished with a hand-braided cord. Each pendant includes a jade identification certificate.

Material: Natural Hetian Qingyu Nephrite

Qingyu is a green-to-gray-green nephrite colour family valued for density, toughness and a calm, refined palette. Nephrite’s interlocking fibrous crystal structure gives it exceptional durability and the soft, oily-looking lustre associated with traditional Hetian jade. Natural clouds, dark mineral flecks and tonal variation make every carving individual.

Deep-Relief Bawang Pixiu Carving

The Pixiu is sculpted across the face with raised brow lines, curling mane, paws, body contours and ornamental scrollwork. Recessed channels create shadow while polished high points catch light, giving the medallion a more three-dimensional appearance than shallow commercial carvings.

Round Medallion Construction

The circular format lets the composition flow continuously around the stone rather than being confined to a rigid rectangle. After carving, the perimeter, reverse and relief high points are progressively refined and polished so the pendant feels smooth in the hand while retaining crisp detail.

Pixiu in Chinese Decorative Culture

Pixiu is a traditional mythical creature widely used in Chinese decorative art and jewellery, commonly associated culturally with guardianship, prosperity and the gathering of wealth. We present these meanings as cultural symbolism rather than as a promise of financial or supernatural results.

Why It Feels Premium

Compared with small mass-market Pixiu charms, this piece offers substantially more stone, deeper carving, a large rounded composition, finished hand-braided cord and certificate-backed material identification. International certified nephrite Pixiu pendants range from the low hundreds to several hundred dollars depending on size and carving, so this piece is positioned as a premium but still competitive option.

How to Wear & Display It

The deep celadon tone works especially well with black, charcoal, navy, brown and natural linen. Wear it long over a simple top so the carving remains the focal point. When not worn, it can also be displayed beside tea ware, incense accessories or a study-desk arrangement.

Gift Appeal

A distinctive choice for birthdays, business milestones, Father's Day, graduations, Chinese New Year and collectors of carved nephrite jewellery.

Certificate & Care

A jade identification certificate is included. Avoid hard impacts, harsh chemicals and ultrasonic cleaning. Wipe gently with a soft damp cloth after wear and store separately from harder jewellery.
