Qin Quest Bracelet (4mm)
【Qin Quest】
Where millennia-old terracotta armies grace your wrist, and the Qin Shi Huang's ambition inspires your soul.
▎The First Emperor and His Immortal Legion▎
In 221 BCE, Qin Shi Huang—the "Oriental Caesar" who ended five centuries of warfare and established China's first centralized empire—unified six warring states with thunderous resolve, forging a sprawling realm of five million square kilometers. More than a revolutionary who standardized scripts, currencies, and measurements, he pioneered the abolition of human sacrifice, commanding artisans to craft a subterranean army of thousands of life-sized terracotta warriors, each bearing unique features, ranks, armor, and stances. For over two millennia, this colossal force has slumbered underground—infantry, cavalry, and archers standing in strict formation, accompanied by chariots and weaponry of breathtaking sophistication. A true "miracle in sculptural history," it remains largely unearthed, with more than seventy percent of the terracotta figures still buried underground, waiting to be awakened.
▎The Empire's Dialogue: Clay and Bronze ▎
We evoke the eternal dialogue between "Earth" and "Metal" in Qin civilization through natural stones and special materials: Yellow Jade carries the Emperor's divine mandate, Tiger's Eye converges the legion's spirit, Egg-Yolk Stone embodies the terracotta's essence, Gold-Foil Beads revive bronze's brilliance. This deliberate fusion of four materials deeply interprets the essence of Qin culture—the terracotta army nurtured by the earth, and the ritual vessels forged in bronze, together formed the cornerstone of China's first unified dynasty. Each bead is a fragment of civilization spanning millennia, continuing on your wrist the Eastern philosophy: "Earth generates Metal, Metal illuminates Earth."
▎Earth-Metal Elements · Stone Analysis ▎
› Yellow Jade · Imperial Soul
A crystal of radiant gold, symbolizing the divine authority of Qin Shi Huang. Treasured by Chinese royalty since antiquity, it aligns with the Earth element in Wu Xing, yet emanates the glory of Metal, embodying the ideal: "All under heaven is the sovereign's land." It empowers the wearer with commanding presence.
› Tiger's Eye · Legion's Spirit
Its flowing golden-brown patterns resemble a marching army—each streak a unique formation. Known as the "Stone of Victory," its cat's-eye effect mirrors the focused gaze of Qin crossbowmen. Rooted in Earth, it carries the sharpness of Metal, igniting courage and resolve.
› Egg-Yolk Stone · Foundation of the Land
The warm, yellow or brown stones representing the empire's earthy foundation. It carries the artisan's devotion in firing the terracotta warriors. As an Earth element, it stabilizes energy and nurtures resilience—the very bedrock of the empire's expanse.
› Gold-Foil Beads · Heaven-Sent Glory
Natural gold leaf encapsulated in resin, reviving the splendor of Qin bronze vessels—just as artisans cast bronze into ritual vessels a millennium ago, today we encapsulate gold with the same devotion into beads, paying tribute across time to the glorious civilization. Aligned with Metal, it attracts honor and prosperity.
▎Design Philosophy ▎
An Imperial Epic Woven in Detail
This bracelet features a 4mm mixed-media design combining natural stones and special materials. Through a gradual transition from "earth tones" to "golden hues," it recreates the Qin Empire's evolution from its loess foundations to bronze civilization. Each bead preserves its natural texture—the clarity of yellow jade, the flowing colors of tiger's eye, the warmth of egg-yolk stone, and the radiance of gold-foiled beads—catching light to reveal the patina of time, much like the painted terracotta and ancient bronzes.
A 3mm sterling silver charm on the bracelet carries our brand story in finely engraved details:
• Brand Inspiration: Nebula Coast
Draws inspiration from that profound moment of tranquility by the coast—where the boundless sea meets the star-filled sky. It represents a mental space for clearing clutter and returning to inner peace.
• Both Side Design:
◦ The whale tail within the 'N' symbolizes the cycle of life—"a whale fall nourishes countless beings"—and pays homage to the mythical creature "Kun" from the ancient text Zhuangzi, a being that roams freely between ocean and cosmos.
◦ The wave-shaped 'C' resonates with "Coast."
◦ Ancient Starburst & Wave Patterns, inspired by motifs found on 7,800-year-old Neolithic pottery. These are among humanity's earliest recorded impressions of stars, clouds, and seas—letting you wear ancient wisdom and cosmic vastness on your wrist.
