Asian Enamel Cloisonne Pendant. 1960s "Good Fortune" Tourist Medallion.

Asian Enamel Cloisonne Pendant. 1960s "Good Fortune" Tourist Medallion. FYI, I added the 22" chain. From Google AI: Front Side • A round metal pendant with a gold-colored border and a chain. • The center features an ornate teapot or ewer design. ◦ The body of the teapot has a small, circular inset showing painted flowers (a red flower with green leaves) and a butterfly. ◦ The background is a vivid turquoise/teal enamel. • The style looks inspired by Middle Eastern or Central Asian metalwork, especially the shape of the pot and the decorative lid. Back Side • The reverse is textured gold metal stamped with four Chinese characters inside a square border with a decorative geometric frame. • The characters appear stylized, almost seal-script-like. They look like: ◦ 龍 (dragon) ◦ 鳳 (phoenix) ◦ 呈祥 — a common phrase meaning “brings auspiciousness” • Many pendants with these characters translate roughly to:
“Dragon and Phoenix Bring Good Fortune” These kinds of pendants were commonly made in China, Hong Kong, or the Middle East for travelers. Origin: Very Likely Chinese (mainland China or Hong Kong) The back engraving is the strongest evidence: • The style is modeled after Chinese seal carving, especially the “chop” style square border with stylized characters. • The characters themselves resemble classical auspicious phrase compositions, a very common feature of mid-cenury Chinese export decorative items.
