The listing, Maneiki Neiko Pendant has ended.
I'm not even sure of the spelling of this well known good luck Japanese cat symbol--I've also noticed this symbol being used by Chinese cultures. I will honestly tell you that I did purchase this lovely pendant in New York City's Chinatown--okay, that may not be a selling point--yet sadly, I'd never worn this thanks to the merchant providing me with a horrific chain. On the bright side, you can see that the MN symbol does shine bright in its golden splendor on both sides. This teardrop shaped charm measures 1 1/2" long and 1" at its widest point. The material feels like plastic as opposed to glass. I can't say for sure what the gold MN is made of but I'm not suggesting that one throws it against a wall nor step on it to test its fragility. As you see, this pendant will need a thin chain--some places do sell thin rope chains. This has never been worn--as I've mentioned the reason--so consider my loss your gain. I will start this listing at a low bid...thanks for looking!
