Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to a pendant, particularly to one having a main body and a decoration inlaid in the main body. The main body is provided with a hollow chamber formed, a plurality of edge lines symmetrically projecting on a peripheral wall of the chamber, an inlay groove formed in each edge line, a deep gap formed to communicate with the chamber in the main body, and a hanging hole. The decoration is inlaid in the chamber of the main body, having a plurality of inlay sides to fit firmly in the inlay grooves of the edge lines. Then the decoration is pushed in the chamber of the main body, after the gap is pushed open, so the decoration may be inlayed in the main body, with the inlay sides respectively fitting in the inlay grooves of the edge lines of the main body, kept stably in the main body, with the assembling process being quick.
2. Description of the Prior Art
