The Lunar New Year is an exciting time of new prospects. Each Zodiac animal brings its own characteristics, providing a fresh approach to prosperity. 2025 is the Year of the Snake.
The snake is an often-under-appreciated creature seen by many as sneaky, calculating, and treacherous. However, snakes also have an undeniable beauty. Their elegant structure makes them a popular design in Chinese jewellery, each snake painstakingly carved into jade pendants and charms. It features here on a beautiful gold-plated medallion.
Highlights
- Mixed-metal medallion with gold plating
- Only 999 available worldwide
- The perfect gift for someone born in the Year of the Snake.
Design
Finished with gold plating, this medallion features a striking illustration of a snake. Elegance is a huge theme in the Lunar New Year aesthetic. You can see it in the careful gold swirls of calligraphy, in the bold red lanterns, in the shiny silk cheongsam and even in the crimped edges of dumplings. The new year is a time of joy and celebration, and having beautiful objects all around promotes fortune for the months ahead.
This medallion is part of a stamp issue that celebrates the Chinese New Year in the Year of the Snake. Click here for more information.
