The five-colored thread is a perfect adornment for everyone, primarily symbolizing peace and safety, much like a protective amulet. Wearing it can bring good fortune, enhance relationships, foster harmonious connections, and attract helpful support. However, its true efficacy is realized only when accompanied by good intentions and virtuous deeds; otherwise, its protective power remains limited.
The five colors also represent the Five Dhyani Buddhas of the Vajradhatu Mandala: Red embodies the radiant light of Amitabha Buddha in the West; Yellow signifies the light of Ratnasambhava Buddha in the South; Black represents the light of Amoghasiddhi Buddha in the North; Green symbolizes the light of Akshobhya Buddha in the East; and White reflects the light of Vairocana Buddha in the center. Adorning oneself with the five-colored thread signifies the presence and protection of these five great Buddhas, offering not only good fortune and safety but also the fifteen auspicious benefits described in Buddhism, such as "constantly meeting virtuous friends, abundant resources and sustenance, and the fulfillment of all desires."

This thread is exceptionally fine. The wax content is designed to protect and condition the cord, ensuring the silk threads appear vibrant and lustrous when wet. This treatment also makes the cord softer to the touch. Consequently, it can be worn during showers without removal. Upon receiving the item, it may feel slightly stiff. After being worn and exposed to water, it will gradually become supple. Similarly, after a few showers, the wax will slowly wear off, enhancing its comfort.
If you prefer not to wear it while showering, soaking it in hot water with body wash will also help remove the wax. It is recommended to wash it with body wash two to three times a week to cleanse away dirt and perspiration, maintaining its cleanliness and bright color.
All accompanying metal parts are made of S925 sterling silver. S925 sterling silver can be worn while showering, but remember to rinse it thoroughly after contact with body wash or shampoo. Although 925 sterling silver is hypoallergenic, prolonged exposure to air can cause oxidation or tarnishing. Therefore, when not wearing your silver jewelry, wipe it clean and seal it in an airtight plastic bag to minimize contact with air, which helps slow down or prevent discoloration. The best way to maintain sterling silver's luster is to wear it daily, as the natural oils from your skin impart a warm, gentle sheen.
