度Size, wearing & display
Look at the overlapping curves as one design. These objects should not be sized like finger jewelry merely because they are called rings. Compare the complete silhouette and confirm the supplied configuration if you plan to display it on a stand.
Plaques and charms can be carried in a pocket or pouch, hung from a cord, or set upright on a desk or altar shelf facing the room.
养Care
Keep wood away from soaking water, steam and long direct sun. Wipe with a soft dry cloth; if the surface looks dry, rub in a very small amount of natural oil.
赠A gift for
Someone starting a new role, business or chapter at work. A new shop, a new home or a Lunar New Year visit. A traveller, a new home, or someone going through an uncertain time. Anyone drawn to Taoist culture and its symbols.
The meaning of this piece · 寓意
Ziwei Seal Qiankun Red Lightning-Struck Wood Taoist Ring
In the old temples of Longhu and Wudang, thunder was the voice of heaven’s law. Priests carved its seals into wood the lightning had already touched and kept them by the door, the bed and the body — so that whatever is crooked would meet something straight.
