Originating in the late Ming Dynasty, it was initially called "Wu Shi Pai" (無飾牌), meaning "unadorned token." Wearing a Wushi Pai is not only a wish for smooth sailing and freedom from disaster, but it is also seen as a "wish token" that carries aspirations, embodying the philosophy that "nothingness" is a form of "presence." ❤️ Yin-Yang Hinoki Wood material, with pale golden "silk" grain around the edges, and rich, oily black "wealth lines" in the center. These two colors intertwine to create unique ink-like patterns.

Even if you don't wear it often, remember to rub it with your hands from time to time. ❤️ A gentle reminder from Woodcraft: ❤️ All natural wood ornaments are unvarnished.
