Handmade Sterling Silver Pendant Necklace, "Chinese Zodiac Goat"

Jantana designs a fabulous jewelry collection inspired by the Chinese zodiac. The style of the pendant recalls China's millenary paper cutting art known as jianzhi. It is masterfully cut by hand from a sheet of brushed sterling silver symbolizing the goat. People born under this sign are said to be creative, intelligent, dependable and calm. Goats enjoy being part of a group, but prefer the sidelines rather than the center.

A sign under the Chinese zodiac is determined by year of birth rather than the day of birth. There are 12 signs, symbolized by animals. The particular sign rules a whole lunar year therefore it is only repeated every 60 years.
