S925 Sterling Silver Jadeite Earrings – "Orchid & Gourd Blessings"

The Essence of This Piece

Living Symbolism in Miniature
These earrings are a dialogue between:

🌸 Orchid Poetry

• Symbol of refinement and integrity in Confucian culture

• Petal curvature mirrors moon phases

🍶 Gourd Alchemy

• Twin charms represent:
  ▸ Health preservation (福)
  ▸ Wealth accumulation (禄)

Nature’s Collaboration

• Jadeite’s variations = Geological diary entries

• Oxidized silver stems = Intentional weathering like scholar’s ink paintings

• 2.5g weight = The mass of two butterfly wings

How to Wear With Intention

☀ Morning → Clip while facing east to capture dawn qi
🌙 Evening → Store with dried orchid buds to recharge
🎋 New Beginnings → Touch gourds when making decisions

Craftsmanship Notes

✅ Jadeite Selection:

• Only stones showing "cloud-water" inclusions

• 9-step hand-polishing to preserve energy channels

Why This Defies Trends

✦ Wearable literati art (文人佩饰) for contemporary life
✦ Self-cleaning design – Jade’s natural static repels dust
✦ Genderless elegance – Passes "Qing Dynasty court dress code" test

"Not following seasons—following qi cycles."
