Every color carries a meaning in Chinese culture. Here are the 13 cord colors of our handmade Five Emperor Coins bracelets, and what each one symbolizes in Feng Shui.
Why Color Matters in Feng Shui
In Chinese Feng Shui, colors are tied to the five elements — Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. Each color carries its own energy, and wearing a specific color can support different intentions: protection, wealth, health, balance, or calm.
Our Five Emperor Coins bracelets come in 13 cord colors. Each one is handwoven with five antique brass coins, using the traditional Vajra Knot. Below is a quick guide to what each color symbolizes.
