Bangle material Icy Jade JiaoTu Pendant with Blue Floating flower

A translucent, bluish-blue jade bangle material with a Jiaotu (a mythical creature) pendant at its core, its carvings imbued with ancient charm, the knotted rope symbolizing both everyday life and refined elegance. Wearing this piece embodies the gentle refinement of Eastern aesthetics and the quiet strength that comes with age. Jiaotu, one of the nine sons of the dragon, resembles a snail or clam and is known for its silence. It sits guarding the door, eyes closed, repelling evil spirits and protecting peace within. Still as a virgin, steadfast as a rock, it closes its shell tightly when threatened, hence its ancient placement on door knockers, door rings, or stone drums, symbolizing the protection and peace of the home—the most silent guardian of the East.
