An exquisite Chinese imperial tassel featuring a jade Mystic Knot pendant tied with beautiful knots and decorated with a jade ring, a lotus flower and a medallion.
The mystic knot, also known by many other names such as the lucky knot, Buddha's knot, love knot, infinity knot, never-ending knot or Endless symbol, is one of the eight auspicious signs of Buddhism that resembles the number “8” interwoven together and can be done so endlessly. The number “8” itself is an auspicious digit for the Chinese because it sounds like “fortune’ and also on sideway, it is the symbol for infinity. Hence the mystic knot symbolizes never ending cycle of good fortune, everlasting love, unending prosperity, limitless success, continued good luck and health, lasting togetherness, assured continuity of love, among other things.
The Lotus is a universal symbol of purity and enlightenment. The Lotus rising beautifully from the mud and murky water signifies overcoming obstacles in life suggests bad things can turn good and pure, even in the darkest and gloomiest situations. This inspires one that one can distance oneself from any bad luck and sufferings, eventually rise out of it and bloom elegantly if one has a pure and sincere heart.
Jade has been used and much sought after in Chinese since 5000 b.c. because of its beautiful color and surface, as well as its protective and healing powers. In Chinese tradition, jade symbolizes the five virtues of humanity: wisdom, justice, compassion, modesty and courage. It is considered a very lucky stone and frequently worn as an amulet. Psychologically, it calms, counteracts prejudices, and gives its possesor a sense of justice and contentment.
