Wen Yao Pendant – Hand-Carved Aged Jinnanmu Wood Accessory Inspired by the Shan Hai Jing

The Wen Yao is a mythological figure recorded in the Shan Hai Jing — one of China's oldest collections of myths and geography: a winged fish associated with peace and abundance. We've transformed this ancient imagery into a simple, minimalist peace pendant. Carved from aged Jinnanmu wood (Phoebe Zhennan) — a rare material formed through thousands of years of natural carbonization underground. Prized in Chinese craftsmanship for its stability, durability, distinctive golden grain patterns, and subtle fragrance — and hand-polished to a smooth finish. Each piece features unique natural grain and color variations. Not a religious item. A piece of ancient cultural storytelling you can wear.
