Description: | Anklets are usually given to young children by their grandparents as a sign of good wishes and protection from evil spirits.
Silver child's anklet with two chains attached, from one of which hangs a peach-shaped pendant with engraved details on the convex side, and a fish inset in the concave side. From the other hangs a padlock engraved with floral motifs and four Chinese characters, 'chang ming fu gui', meaning 'long life and wealth'.
