Graduated rich blue stones and blue and white porcelain are a classic combo!
The necklace is about 16 inches (41 cm) long with a 3 inch extension chain (7 cm). The large blue & white pendant measures about 45mm X 30mm.
This necklace is so versatile - it looks great with denim for a casual look as well as adding a touch of sophistication for a dressier look.
The Chinese porcelain beads are reminiscent of the antique dynasty porcelains which are famous throughout the world. The beads have been hand painted with Chinese characters representing longevity, happiness, wealth, love, and good fortune.
The blue & white porcelain became well developed in the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368), but flourished in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. First natural cobalt was painted on the basic body. Then it would turn blue after being fired at high temperatures. The white glaze covered by a clear glaze highlighted the blue designs. The blue & white porcelain vases, plates, decorative items, and beads are different and unique.
