Jade Heart Pendant Necklace in Apple Green from Guatemala, "Apple Green Culture of Love"
This is a fantastic piece of jewelry to layer or to pair with dresses and swimsuits. The Zuñiga Gomez Family handcrafts the pendant cut from pale green Guatemalan jade and displays on an adjustable black cotton cotton cord.
Jade has been prized in Guatemala and the rest of Central America since pre-Hispanic times. The Mayan inhabitants of the region linked it to the supernatural and the afterlife. Modern artisans like the Zuñiga Gomez Family keep the tradition alive through their art.

"Simple but striking"
My wife met this vendor in person on a trip during graduate school and loved his work. I was delighted to find that his work is now available online, and it made a perfect gift for her. The necklace has a satisfying weight and design is well-polished---and is even more charming in person than in photos. Highly recommended.

"Perfect gift for boyfriend"
My boyfriend talked about a jade crecent moon pendant he got while on a college trip in south america. He had unfortunatley lost it, but spoke fondly of it. I bought this as a replacement. Although it wasnt as big as the one he had, he still loved this gift. It was packaged well and looks exactly like the photo.
