Instead of the traditional red or gold, Loewe opted for something a little different.

Each of the five pendants is limited edition masterpiece.
Traditionally referred to as the “stone of heaven”, jade is an emblem of affluence and enduring vitality. The pendants take the form of various flora cultivated in Chinese soil, holding strong cultural significance.
