Jimeng keeps the line of the necklace simple, allowing banded agate and its focal hardware to hold equal attention.
Product Details
The Wearing Experience
Smooth banded agate edges and natural variation make the stone comfortable to handle, while its color and markings provide the strongest visual detail.
Against clothing or skin, the banded agate remains visually central while the cord recedes into the composition.
Jimeng and the Design
Jimeng is a dragon-headed, human-bodied deity of Mount Guang. Wherever he moves, wind and rain follow, making the figure a visible center of changing weather.
The link to Jimeng sits in the composition, not in a figurine. The image of a rain-bringing being with a human face and a dragonlike body is carried by proportion, surface and the way the eye moves toward the center.

Care
For this banded agate necklace, avoid prolonged contact with water, perfume, lotions and household cleaners. Take the piece off before showering, swimming or exercise, wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear and store separately to protect the stone and plated details.
Jewelry is experienced not only by sight. The weight of a bead, the cool surface of stone, and the warmth wood gathers from the skin are all part of the piece.
A Jambhala piece is designed to be worn often and touched naturally, keeping its symbol—and the meaning you chose—close at hand.
We choose natural materials for their character, not for perfect uniformity. Grain, color, pattern, and surface will vary from one piece to another.
With wear, wood may deepen in tone, metal finishes may soften, and surfaces may take on subtle traces of touch. These natural changes are part of living with the piece.
Every Jambhala piece begins with a meaning drawn from an old story. You may choose it for that meaning, for a memory of your own, or simply because you want to wear it. With time and wear, the piece becomes personal.
