Medicine Buddha Gadu Pendant with Mala Beads

This item is a decorative Buddhist pectoral pendant (Gadu) depicting Bhaisajyaguru, also known as the Medicine Buddha. The central figure is rendered in a deep lapis lazuli blue, seated in a meditative dhyana mudra upon a pink and white lotus throne. The Buddha holds a bowl of healing nectar, and the figure is set against a vibrant green background, encased in an ornate golden scrolled border. The pendant is housed in a black protective teardrop-shaped casing, which is further embellished with gold-tone Buddhist cloud or wave patterns around its edge. The casing appears to be made of a modern resin or acrylic with a clear protective window. Attached to the top is a gold-tone metallic bail. Included with the pendant is a string of mala beads consisting primarily of polished black obsidian or glass beads, interspersed with decorative red and blue lampworked glass focal beads. A white tag with a lotus line drawing indicates this is a retail item, likely of contemporary manufacture. The craftsmanship shows mass-produced qualities with crisp, stencil-like gold detailing on the outer frame. The condition appears new or excellent with no visible wear, chips, or patina, suggesting it is a modern spiritual accessory rather than an antique artifact.
