This is a beautiful item featuring a Mystic Knot pendant carved out of Rhodonite, tied with a red mystic knot and end off with two Chinese red tassels.
The mystic knot, also known by many other names such as the lucky knot, love knot, infinity knot, never-ending knot or Endless symbol, is one of the eight auspicious signs of Buddhism that resembles the number “8” interwoven together and can be done so endlessly. The number “8” itself is an auspicious digit for the Chinese because it sounds like “fortune’ and also on sideway, it is the symbol for infinity. Hence the mystic knot symbolizes a never ending cycle of good fortune, longevity, unending prosperity, limitless success, continued good luck and health, lasting togetherness, assured continuity of love, everlasting love, among other things. Revered for its many qualities, this auspicious symbol was embroidered in all the imperial robes worn by the Emperors of China in ancient times to signify immortality. It is also one of the Eight Auspicious Buddhist objects.
