From a Chinese perspective, jade is often seen as a symbol of beauty, elegance, and purity. Throughout history, jade has held a special place in Chinese culture, regarded second only to gold and silver in terms of value. Jade has been widely used in the creation of luxury ornaments and is considered an essential gift for foreign dignitaries.
To properly care for a jade bangle, it's said that you should wear it regularly. Surprisingly, if it's stored away in a box for too long, the jade may dry out as the moisture within the stone escapes. The warmth of your skin, along with sweat and natural oils, helps maintain the jade’s shine and smooth texture. Moreover, wearing the bangle is believed to stimulate pressure points on your wrist, while the coolness of the jade helps to calm the mind.
It’s common for Chinese women to wear jade bangles continuously, only removing them if they break. It is believed that if the bangle breaks unexpectedly, it has protected the wearer from harm.
**How to Put It On:**
Although jade bangles may appear to need a large opening to fit over the hand, most women wear ones that are only slightly wider than their wrists. So how do they put them on?
There is a simple technique for wearing a jade bangle. First, apply lotion evenly to the wrist, palm, and fingers of the hand on which you’ll wear the bangle. Next, bring your thumb and pinky finger together, shaping your hand into a long, narrow "C" shape. Then, insert your hand at an angle into the bangle to slide it on.
