A fabulous piece of early colonial NZ pounamu (aka greenstone or jade), with a 9K solid gold stamped wrap-around, hung on a nice solid and stamped 9K chain. The chain is a modern piece, not original to the pendant, but matches the style nicely.

The book pendant measures 23x17x5.5mm (excluding the hanger loop. It is stamped on the base of the gold wrap-around. The chain is 49cm in length and is stamped near the clasp.

The pendant is in excellent condition, some minor age appropriate wear to the gold, but no significant issues otherwise. The chain is in perfect condition.

Note that the gold on the pendant and the chain is solid, NOT plated or rolled, and has been tested by a local bullion dealer using their precious metals XRF analysis equipment, in addition to the purity stamps on both pieces. So you can buy with confidence knowing the gold been professionally tested and is of the purity stated.
