Jadeite is highly demanded and is exclusively sourced from Myanmar, formerly Burma, hence it is widely known as “Burmese Jade”. It is rich in heritage and widely believed to have spiritual meanings in the Chinese culture. Jade is believed to protect the person who wears it.
Guan Yin, also known as ‘The Goddess of Compassion’, ‘The Goddess of Mercy’ and ‘Avalokitesvara’, is among the most beloved deities. A Guan Yin pendant is believed to bestow good luck and protection to the wearer.
