When worries tangle in your mind, hold this amulet, clasp your hands together, and pray to the Three Great Officials for peace and tranquility. https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/65718238b8ba41000ea0726c/original.jpg Amulets are an indispensable part of Taiwanese faith. Found in wallets, cars, and keychains, they are ubiquitous. However, most existing amulets are made with heat-processed plastic, which is not durable and environmentally unfriendly. This time, we've collaborated with Penghu Fenggui Sanguan Temple to launch leather amulets. Crafted from high-quality, locally tanned leather and meticulously hand-stitched by our artisans, these amulets allow your faith to be expressed with pure craftsmanship. https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62ecb3b4cbf151002e68e9d8/original.jpg https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62f9e6fa4f05358c6bc9d496/original.jpg **Blessings Across the Sea from Penghu Fenggui — Fenggui Flowing Wealth Sanguan Temple** When you mention Fenggui, the first thing that comes to mind is Hou Hsiao-hsien's film "The Boys from Fengkuei." The most iconic scene features waves crashing onto the shore as the protagonists dance by the water. When the waves hit the rock caves, they create a whistling sound, resembling "Fenggui, Fenggui..." which is how Fenggui got its name. On this coast, accompanied by the sound of the waves, stands a centuries-old temple facing the Taiwan Strait – the Flowing Wealth Sanguan Temple. Since its establishment during the Qing Dynasty, the sound of the waves has never ceased, and the Sanguan Temple has remained by the shore, eternally protecting the local residents. https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/657181bfb0fba6001d666572/original.jpg https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/657181d0b6b0f1001a5f6b39/original.jpg **Who are the Three Officials of Sanguan Temple?** The Three Officials are the Heavenly Official, the Earthly Official, and the Water Official, reflecting humanity's reverence for the three realms of nature. The Heavenly Official bestows blessings, the Earthly Official grants absolution, and the Water Official dispels misfortune. These three forms of protection are deeply intertwined with daily life, suggesting that any worldly troubles can find resolution at Sanguan Temple. https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62fa01f697d14b001ff259be/original.png **May You Return Soon – Divine Turtle Amulet** Legend has it that a sea turtle leaped from the ocean to rescue a fisherman from Fenggui who had fallen into the sea, saving him from being swallowed by the waves. In gratitude for the turtle's help, locals carved a wooden divine turtle and enshrined it in Sanguan Temple. https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/6576dd47545687864f2df62d/original.JPG?1702288710 This story, passed down through centuries, consistently highlights the divine nature of the sea turtle's assistance and represents the deep piety of the Fenggui residents at the time. "May you return soon" is a homophone for turtle, also signifying the return of good fortune and wealth. We've transformed the divine turtle into a little money turtle, bringing you blessings and good luck whether placed on your office desk or study table! https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62ecb2666bd25c0022d89ee4/original.jpg **High-Temperature Glazed Brass Hardware** Both the divine turtle and the beaded chain are cast in brass and treated with high-temperature glazing. This process coats the brass with a protective layer, preventing oxidation spots and ensuring greater longevity. https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62ecb2586340300031d44933/original.jpg https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62f34bd8735c170019a7f572/original.jpg https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62ecb2a33d1d3b002ec79136/original.jpg **May You Be Healthy – Penghu Little Skylark Amulet** Wishing you peace and health – the simplest yet most heartfelt of blessings. Just as leather possesses an irreplaceable warmth and approachability, unlike the brilliance of gold and jewels. The Little Skylark, the county bird of Penghu, symbolizes peace when at rest and health when in flight. With peace and health intertwined, this small blessing offers enduring warmth. Each amulet has been blessed by the deities and consecrated by local spiritual masters, allowing the leather to be fully imbued with the sacred aura of the Three Great Officials, protecting believers in lasting health and peace! https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62ecb47c6de087002b127f77/original.jpg https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62ecb72d1efd730016cb326a/original.jpg https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62ecb73a6340300025d44554/original.jpg https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62ecb734eb8ff3001f283baa/original.jpg **The "Golden Roof" Arch of Penghu's Ancient Houses, Symbolizing Wealth** The design is inspired by the "golden roof" (ridge beam) of Penghu's traditional coral stone houses. In Feng Shui, the "golden roof" is considered a symbol of wealth and is the most common architectural feature in Penghu's old houses. We've incorporated the elegant lines of the "golden roof" into the amulet's design, allowing the divine turtle to bless everyone with abundant prosperity. https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62f61149975dab001363739e/original.jpg https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/64fa8d151f9a38001df3b243/original.jpg **Transformation and Integration** The four elements – "Heavenly Official," "Earthly Official," "Water Official," and "Divine Turtle" – are transformed and integrated into embossed symbols on the amulet, with the divine turtle gracefully swimming within the realms of heaven, earth, and water. https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62f6116d4c99bf0031182dc3/original.jpg **"Faith to calm your spirit, craftsmanship to warm your heart." — Nine Features of Our Amulets** We've compiled nine key features of our amulets, allowing you to quickly understand every detail of our Sanguan Temple amulet designs! ◆ Handmade Artisan Hand-Stitched | Stitched and burnished stitch by stitch Hand-Embossed | Purely hand-embossed amulets Saddle Stitch | Contrasting with machine stitching, the saddle stitch is more secure and less prone to unraveling ◆ Selected Materials Commitment to Local | Using top-grain cowhide tanned by a nearly century-old local tannery in Tainan Durable & Eco-Friendly | Replacing disposable incense bags with more sustainable and durable leather Premium Packaging | Packaged with an outer sleeve from the British New Bond Paper ◆ Consecrated Blessings Spiritual Consecration | Consecrated by local young spirit mediums from Sanguan Temple Cross-Sea Blessings | Blessings from Penghu Fenggui Sanguan Temple Three Copper Molds | For blessings of peace, health, and wealth https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62f9b263413213001c117263/original.jpg **▌Top-Grain Cowhide Tanned by a Century-Old Local Tannery in Tainan** Boma Leather Studio was born within Shun Sheng Tannery, a family-run business with nearly a century of leather tanning experience. Thus, we chose our own high-quality vegetable-tanned leather for the Sanguan Temple amulets. As the leather ages with use, its color will gradually deepen, imbuing this amulet with a sense of history. https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62ecbd1d1a780700252c18cd/original.jpg https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62f611d56e8afb0013964146/original.jpg **▌Hand-Stitched and Burnished, Stitch by Stitch** 100% handmade, each stitch is meticulously adjusted. This process involves multiple steps including edge treatment, burnishing, chamfering, polishing, and conditioning. While these steps may seem simple, they require significant time and effort, all to achieve a level of refinement that machine-stitched items cannot match. https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62f61296b21efc00197d150d/original.jpg https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62f612a0367961574a96a9ad/original.jpg **▌The Secure Saddle Stitch** Hermès was one of the earliest luxury brands to adopt this stitching technique, hence it's also known as the "Hermès stitch." Unlike machine stitching, if a thread breaks in the saddle stitch, the entire seam is less likely to unravel. https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62ecbe9cd694190028234f93/original.jpg **▌Packaging with British New Bond Paper Sleeves** We've chosen British New Bond Paper for the outer packaging. It's left uncolored and unprinted, featuring only matte gold foil stamping and embossing, preserving the paper's natural fibers. This simple, unadorned aesthetic complements the traditional charm perfectly. https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62f612d186c6a40022530d51/original.jpg https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62ecc0465d97430025f07fdc/original.jpg **▌Replacing Disposable Incense Bags with More Durable and Eco-Friendly Leather** We've moved away from common, easily torn plastic incense bags. For the Sanguan Temple amulets, we use more durable leather, ensuring the blessings of the Three Great Officials last for a long time. https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62f613031549410025c64165/original.jpg **▌Consecration by Sanguan Temple's Young Spirit Mediums** Each amulet is personally consecrated by the young spirit mediums of Penghu Fenggui, bringing the blessings and protection of the Three Great Officials as if they were right beside you. https://img.shoplineapp.com/media/image_clips/62f61325ae60b70031e9b021/original.gif - **Product Dimensions** May You Be Healthy – Little Skylark Amulet (Peace, Health) Length 53.7 × Width 47 × Thickness 3 mm ※ Thickness 4.5 mm when Amulet Token is inserted May You Return Soon – Divine Turtle Amulet Length 33 × Width 37 × Thickness 3 mm ※ Thickness 5.5 mm when Divine Turtle is inserted Hot Stamped Gift Box (Indigo, Port Wine Red) Length 80 × Width 95 × Height 30 mm **Leather Q&A** Q: Are the dark lines on the leather normal? A: Scars, insect bites, and stretch marks are natural occurrences during a cow's growth. We consider these unique characteristics of the leather. However, if any marks are too severe and affect the aesthetic, we will try to avoid them. Q: How should I care for it? A: Continuous use, allowing the natural oils from your hands to protect the leather, is the best form of care. For daily maintenance, after simple cleaning, apply a leather-specific conditioner evenly. Q: What if it gets dirty? A: Please do not use detergents to clean it. Simply wipe with a cotton cloth. **Important Notes** 1. All amulets are handmade.
