This striking mid-century genuine jade keychain features a substantial polished green stone drop suspended from a flexible gold-tone snake-style connector and sturdy spring-loaded key ring. The jade displays beautiful natural variation, ranging from lighter celadon and apple greens to deeper mossy green areas, giving the stone wonderful organic character.
Especially desirable is the surviving original red “Genuine Jade – The Heavenly Stone” information card. The period card describes jade as a traditional token of good fortune and a symbol of love, happiness and long life. Its typography, wording and presentation complement the mid-century character of the piece and make the surviving card a particularly nice addition.
The polished jade is secured within a decorative gold-tone prong-style cap, while the flexible metal connector and substantial circular key clasp give the piece the classic look of mid-century gift and souvenir accessories. More than simply a key holder, it can also be clipped to a handbag or pouch and worn as a decorative jade charm.
