Cultural & Symbolic Significance:

In traditional Chinese culture, the gourd (葫芦, húlu) has been a beloved symbol for centuries, representing abundance, protection, and good fortune. The word for gourd sounds similar to the words for "fortune" and "protection" in Chinese, making it a popular motif in art and jewelry.

Serpentine is a natural stone known for its rich green color and smooth texture, often used in traditional Chinese carvings.

In traditional crystal healing practices, phantom quartz has been valued for its unique internal formations, though these are cultural beliefs rather than scientifically proven claims.
