Modern and Traditional styles of jewelry set with semi-precious stones are for sale in many of Beijing’s tourist shops. You may find old pieces of silver in the form of Pendants which were traditionally worn by children as good luck charms, small needle-holders which women wore hanging from their jacket-button, pill-boxes, or bells. Chinese skill in cutting and working jade is seen in the artistry or carved figurines, vases and medallions. Wenfangsibaotang at 99 Liulichang Xijie has a good selection of jewelry, and Peiwenxuan at 37 Liulichang East is a small, charming shop selling attractive jewelry and small trinkets.
