Description
The Five Emperor Coins (Wu Di Qian, 五帝钱) are among the most celebrated symbols in Chinese tradition. During the Qing Dynasty, the reigns of five successive emperors — Shunzhi, Kangxi, Yongzheng, Qianlong, and Jiaqing — marked an era of unity and prosperity. Their coins were strung together as a talisman believed to bring protection, wealth, and balance to the wearer.
Our bracelet takes inspiration from this time-honored design. Five brass coins with an antique finish are hand-braided onto a durable cord using the traditional Vajra Knot. Every piece is handmade, so subtle variations make each bracelet one of a kind.
✦ About Your Handmade Piece
Because each bracelet is woven entirely by hand, you may notice very slight heat-sealed marks at the cord ends. This is a standard finishing step that prevents fraying and ensures durability. It is a subtle mark of authentic craftsmanship and will not affect wear, fit, or appearance.
Olive Green is muted, natural, and calm. It is a soft organic tone.

Care & FAQ
Is this bracelet really handmade?
Yes. Every bracelet is 100% hand-braided using traditional Chinese knotting techniques. No two pieces are exactly alike.
What are the Five Emperor Coins?
They are traditional Chinese cultural symbols representing protection, wealth, and positive energy. Our bracelet features five modern brass coins with an antique finish, designed in this classic style.
How do I adjust the size?
Pull the two cord ends to tighten, or pull the main band apart to loosen. The sliding knot holds securely within 16–26 cm.
Will the brass coin tarnish?
Brass naturally develops a warm patina over time. Chemicals and moisture can speed up this process. Polish gently with a dry cloth if you prefer a brighter finish.
