About the Item
A beautiful example of traditional craftsmanship, this antique pendant features a finely hand-carved figure in rich red Mediterranean coral (Corallium Rubrum), believed to depict Mei Guanyin, the revered bodhisattva of compassion and mercy in East Asian Buddhism.

Suspended from a simple yet elegant gold bail, the pendant is ready to wear as a statement piece or to be added to a curated collection of antique amulets or cultural jewelry.
Material: Natural red (blood) coral, Corallium Rubrum
Importantly, Corallium rubrum is not listed under the CITES Appendices, making this piece fully legal for international trade and highly desirable among collectors and jewelry enthusiasts.
Subject: Carved figure, likely Mei Guanyin
Dimensions: H 4.5 cm and W 1.1 cm
Mount: Gold hanging loop/bail
Period: Early to mid-20th century
