Love Knot Jade Bangle

Love Knot Jade Bangle by Ivy Teong

Chinese knot, a symbol of love of eternity or commonly people just say tying a knot.
Traditionally, it acts as a good luck charm for newly wedding couples.
The word “knot” in Chinese is 结 (jie) and carry few auspicious meanings. For example, “to marry” 结婚 (jiehun), “to unite” 团结 (tuanjie) and “to bear fruits” 结果 (jieguo). Family that gives a knot to a couple is for all the blessings and having children as well.
Imagine the happiness of the family finally seeing her starting her own family. Therefore, the gift is very sentimental symbolizing family blessings to both bride and groom. It is an heirloom piece.
In modern days, it is also mean “mother and daughter love are eternal no matter what”. I believed mother and daughter bonding are unique to the extent words cannot be describe.
There are Ruby in the knot expressing the bride’s birthstone personality for nobility, purity, and passion. The bangle can be worn both ways for different occasions, one side with the knot and the other side without the knot.
