The Significance of Jade On Your Wedding Day

 

Contrary to popular belief that Jade is only worn for conspicuously traditional weddings, this precious gemstone has proven to be quintessential for the discerning modern day bride.

Jade is, historically, an incredibly significant East-Asian icon. It’s mentioned in almost every piece of traditional Chinese literature and has been revered for being a symbol of protection and love. In traditional Chinese culture, this gemstone is believed to be a living thing that protects and heals one's spirit and body. It is believed that one's personal jade bangle possesses the ability to protect it's wearer from harm and will break or chip as it takes the brunt of a possible fall or injury. Furthermore, the colour green in jade also signifies balance, wealth, fertility, luck, harmony and long life - qualities that are essential for every happy marriage.

The hallmark of our Si Dian Jin is none other than our use of Type A Burmese Jadeite and the exquisite designs of our jewellery pieces. Designed to match the day-to-day wardrobe of the modern bride, we believe that jewellery withholding such precious memories and significance are deserving to be proudly worn on a daily basis. With Si Dian Jin's great cultural influence on Chinese Weddings, the traditional roots of this customary practice is conserved through our signature jade pieces with delicate metalwork and beloved gemstones.
