Turquoise No Charm Plaque Safe and Sound Wish Plaque Longevity Lock Butterfly Large Gemstone Earrings One-of-a-Kind Gift

**◈ Designer's Notes** In nature, natural **turquoise (Blue Turquoise, Green Turquoise) often coexists with various minerals such as azurite, malachite, lapis lazuli, and cuprite**, making the texture of each gemstone unique – a gift from the heavens. This piece features carefully selected natural turquoise (coexisting with multiple minerals), intricately carved into a **"No Charm" (Peace and Safety)** design. The mineral distribution is artistic and beautiful, showcasing soothing hues of **fruit green and maple yellow**, resembling lush pine forests or ink wash landscapes. Each gemstone is **like a canvas**, recording textures akin to landscape paintings. Adorned with **Longevity Lock (Long Life, Peace and Prosperity) and Butterfly (Good Fortune)** charms, it fully expresses auspicious elegance, magnificently embodying the energy and beautiful textures of antique-grade gemstones. **This gemstone is large and heavy; modification to clip-ons is not recommended.** **This is a one-of-a-kind piece, awaiting its destined owner of wisdom and good fortune.** **Turquoise** Turquoise ranges in color from blue, green, to light green and yellow. It is one of the ancient gemstones, revered as a mystical and protective item since ancient Egypt, Mexico, and Persia. Ancient rulers used turquoise to display their divine authority, political power, and wealth. Externally, the black veins on the surface of turquoise are called "iron lines," formed by the oxidation of iron elements within the turquoise. Thus, each iron line is a unique gift from nature. Furthermore, turquoise is graded by its degree of "vitrification." The higher the vitrification, the fewer the iron lines, the denser the structure, and the rarer the production. **No Charm (Wushi Pai)** During the late Ming Dynasty, jade carvings evolved, with "plain" jade plaques becoming most popular. Taking advantage of the homophone, these are known as "Wushi Pai" (No Charm Plaque), also signifying "Peace and Safety." They served as "wish plaques" for people seeking peace and health. **Longevity Lock (Changming Suo)** Also known as a "named lock," longevity locks are often made of metal or precious jade, shaped like ancient locks (elongated) and engraved with characters like "Long Life and Prosperity." They were worn by children around their necks as decorative items, symbolizing the warding off of disasters and evil, "locking in" life, and expressing the blessings of elders for their juniors. Today, longevity locks have evolved to incorporate auspicious shapes like ruyi scepters, lotus flowers, lingzhi mushrooms, and cloud patterns, enhancing their decorative appeal. They are no longer limited to elder-to-junior use but are suitable for all ages and genders. **◈ Carefully Selected Materials, Meticulously Inspected** Materials: Natural Turquoise, Enamel, 18K Gold, 925 Silver Dimensions: Turquoise No Charm Plaque approximately 40mm high, 30.6mm wide, 4.4mm thick.

However, we will strive to maintain a consistent style and ask for your patience as we craft each masterpiece. **◈ On Usage and Collection** 1. Natural gemstones possess natural luster and unique textures (tiny black spots, stone patterns, ice cracks, cloudy inclusions, mineral defects, asymmetry, and other natural details). When worn frequently, you will observe subtle color changes in the natural gemstones, which typically become more translucent and captivating – this is also the best method of care. Natural organic gemstones (such as coral and amber) have low hardness and are not resistant to acids and alkalis. If soiled, absolutely avoid using cleaning agents; clean with plain water and wipe with a soft cloth. You may also use a soft brush dipped in a small amount of mineral oil (like baby oil) for gentle brushing and nurturing. 2. Metal jewelry has a long lifespan, but avoid external damage or strong acids/alkalis that can cause fading. 3. Fabric materials (ribbon, cotton, gauze) are soft and comfortable to the touch and have a long lifespan, but avoid high temperatures, external damage, or strong acids/alkalis that can cause fading. 4. For any jewelry, when soiled, wipe with a soft cloth dipped in water as appropriate, or use a suitable amount of neutral detergent for appropriate materials. After washing, ensure it is thoroughly dried promptly. 5. When jewelry is removed, it should be carefully packaged and stored, isolated from excess air to slow down oxidation and discoloration, and avoid stacking or heavy pressure. **◈ Work Packaging and After-Sales Service** 1.
