Questions About Chinese Symbol

  • PAGODA RED
    PAGODA REDOctober 21, 2020

    Valued for its rarity and lustrous appearance, jade has been thought to symbolize excellence and purity of human virtue. When worn as jewelry or as a protective charm, the stone was thought to imbue a person with a clear mind and pure spirit, and to guard against evil spirits or illness.
