Knowledge about jade behind the scenes:
The Chinese jade Ruyi is a symbol rich in cultural significance and is often worn for its auspicious meanings. The word "Ruyi" translates to "as you wish" or "may all your wishes come true," which reflects the deep-rooted belief in the power of this symbol to bring good fortune, success, and the fulfillment of one's desires.

Wearing a jade Ruyi pendant or accessory is believed to bestow the wearer with luck, prosperity, and protection. It is often given as a gift to express best wishes, especially in important life events like weddings, birthdays, or career advancements. The Ruyi symbolizes authority and power, historically associated with the imperial court, but it also represents personal fulfillment and harmony.

In essence, wearing a jade Ruyi is not just about its beauty, but also about carrying a piece of tradition that embodies the hope for a prosperous and happy life.
