Another lovely bunny joining my pack. 

This time I offer limited amount of these. 

Beautifully decorated and shaped bunny in a micro size lives on a chunky handmade sterling silver band. Whopping 0.5 Oz! Starry sky with two moons and stars. 

It was time consuming and required strength but worth every minute I have spent. 

 Moon Guardian.  

Perfect hand-finished patina.

Enjoy!

  • China: The Moon Rabbit was brought to the moon by Chang’e, a woman who accidentally took too much of the Pill of Immortality and floated to the moon.
  • Japan & Korea: The Moon Rabbit was once studying Buddhism with a fox and a monkey. To test their faith, the Emperor of the Heavens asked them to bring him food. The fox caught a fish, and the monkey returned with fruit. The rabbit, who could find nothing but grass, jumped into a fire and offered himself. The Emperor was touched by its commitment, and appointed the rabbit as the guardian of the moon.

What is the rabbit pounding in the mortar?

  • China: Chinese herbal medicine to make elixir for Chang’e.
  • Japan: Mochi pounder.
  • Korea: Rice to make rice cakes.
