Large vintage hand carved round Asian focal pendant bead:

~ Big, showy size, fancy carvings, and scalloped border treatment

~ Glossy mottled brown stone that is cold to the touch - guessing it to be a brown jade or nephrite or similar

~ One side is a little more elaborately carved than the other - I am presuming this was meant to be the front side of the disk

"A picture is worth a thousand words"

Please view & enlarge all photographs to closely inspect fine details and to gauge the amount of patina and/or wear. Most older pieces by nature normally have some degree of both and, unless severe, aren't considered damaged and not mentioned. Especially if obvious and/or prominent in the photos. Individuals do have varying levels of desire and tolerance for "vintage charm" so do utilize the scroll arrows beside the photos to allow yourself the opportunity to view them all, as they are an important integral part and extension of the description.
