The Laughing Buddha has become a common and popular name for Budai, a Buddhist Zen monk who lived in China over a thousand years ago. He was different from all other monks as he was a jolly fellow and often laughed wholeheartedly, and reminded everyone to enjoy life and stay happy. How can you not smile when you look at this face of Budai set in Tibetan silver?

The necklace is lovingly hand-knotted, made of red coral and yellow quartz. It is 19-1/2 inches long and the pendant is 2 inches top to bottom.
