Furthermore, there is an enchanting spider motif in karat gold, hiding to the back of the gardenia petal, symbolizing liveliness and celebrating the fascination of mother-nature as a whole.

A LETTER AFTER THE SNOW
Engraved inside the jadeite Banzi was a distinguished calligraphy by Wang Xizhi, famous writer during the Jin dynasty. Wang once wrote a letter and extended cordial greetings to his friend cheerfully in the beautiful sunshine after snowing. It was eulogized for centuries in the history of Chinese calligraphy. To echo with the smoothness of the ring, Wang displays cursive and artistic style of Chinese characters relating to renowned 'running script' of Wang Xizhi. The airy and flowing scriptures contrasting with a masculine jadeite ring also symbolizes the propitious and traditional meaning 'Qian Kun Zai Wo' in Chinese, which mythically means all authority in heaven and earth in one's hand.
