A cabochon-cut stone accents the clasp, while beaded edges trace the contour.\u003cbr\u003eThe openwork body offers a glimpse within: a crimson interior and talismanic elements quietly visible. This is a locket in the truest sense — designed to hold meaning as much as it holds form.\u003cbr\u003eIn Chinese tradition, the gourd is a vessel of fortune and prosperity.

The outer frame is finished with braided rope detailing in antique silver-tone.\u003cbr\u003eRooted in the philosophy of complementary opposites, dragon and tiger, fire and water represent dynamic balance — each containing the seed of its opposite.
