The Origin and Meaning of the Ping An Kou (Peace Buckle)
The Ping An Kou, also known as the “Peace Buckle” or “Jade Ring,” is a traditional Chinese jade ornament with a rich history and deep symbolism. Its simple circular shape, featuring a round hole in the center, reflects the ancient Chinese cosmological concept of “round heaven and square earth.” This design embodies the ideals of peace, completeness, and harmony.
The origins of the Ping An Kou trace back to jade discs called “bi” used during the Neolithic period in China. Jade has long been treasured as a sacred material believed to protect against evil and connect the wearer to the spiritual world. The Ping An Kou evolved from these jade discs into a smaller, wearable form resembling a buckle, symbolizing the idea of “locking in peace.”
Wearing a Ping An Kou is more than decorative — it is a talisman that represents a wish for a smooth, safe, and harmonious life. Throughout history, from emperors to common people, it has been cherished as a symbol of protection, well-being, and good fortune.
Today, the Ping An Kou remains a beloved emblem, often crafted from precious jade combined with gold accents. It not only showcases elegant artistry but also carries forward a timeless blessing — a beautiful link between ancient tradition and modern life.
