The longevity lock has carried the promise of long life and protection in Chinese tradition for centuries. At Lao Feng Xiang, that promise is rendered in pure 24K antique gold and set with seventy diamonds.
At Lao Feng Xiang, the lock form is reinterpreted for a lifetime of wear. The body of the pendant is satin-matte brushed gold, broad and substantial, with an openwork lock motif carved at its center where the meaning resides most directly. Seventy natural diamonds run the full perimeter in continuous pavé, tracing the scalloped edge of the pendant with a precision that rewards close attention. A ruby sits at the bail above, its deep red the color of protection and vitality in Chinese tradition, marking the entry point of the piece before the eye moves to what lies below. At 9.31g the pendant carries real presence on the chest.
