A stunning Siberian jade bead rope necklace with a one-of-a-kind gold, silver and bronze antique ojime depicting a 'Shishima Temple Lion,' a protective guardian often posted at temple entrances and prominent family compounds. Ojime date back to 19th century Japan. In order to carry their personal effects, men would attach a bag or box from a cord on their kimono sash, using an ojime to secure the contents inside. Believed to possess magical properties and often worn as talismans, they were enviable status symbols, giving prestige to those who wore them.
