expert answers
with the collective "endorsement" of olympic champions, national style jewelry will definitely set off a national trend again. however, compared with the relatively simple modern designs of european and american jewelry, chinese-style accessories look more cumbersome and complicated, and harder to control. so you need to learn more and try on more to find the style and style that suits you best.
what is chinese style jewelry? it mainly depends on the raw materials, production technology and traditional meaning of gemstones. jadeite and field jade are the most common gemstones used in chinese-style jewelry. however, chinese-style jewelry is not limited to traditional gemstones, including rubies, sapphires, and emeralds.
in addition to modern common inlay techniques, national style jewelry also has china's unique traditional inlay techniques: filigree, gold and silver weaving, enamel, engraving... which makes the jewelry look luxurious and elegant, and is very suitable for matching with grand dresses or exquisite chinese clothing.however, if you want to match it with everyday clothes, you should choose small-area jewelry with simple outlines such as round or square, and then use exquisite traditional craftsmanship to inlay it.
as the saying goes, "words must be intentional and meanings must be auspicious." national style jewelry is often full of auspicious meanings, such as auspicious animals, auspicious clouds, patterns, melons and beans, safe buttons, etc. for major events, happy events and other important events, wearing guofeng jewelry is better, and our olympic champions are no exception.
also,you can also choose the shape of chinese style jewelry according to your face shape and body shape.for example, pendants with slender lines such as fu melon and fu bean have the effect of elongating the neck and face shape, and are suitable for square and round faces and slightly chubby figures. the round safety buckle is more suitable for women with slim faces and tall bodies.
however, not all national style jewelry is suitable for us to wear.women are more suitable for soft style jewelry, while those with fierce themes like auspicious animals should be chosen carefully.if your aura is not strong enough, it is best not to choose jewelry that is too heavy in shape, such as large rings and earrings, which can easily make people look old-fashioned.in addition, many chinese-style jewelry have bright colors or strong contrast styles, such as the brightly colored beads of southern red agate, which will look tacky if not matched properly, while single southern red earrings can make you look more delicate and cute. .
in the past, people always thought that chinese style jewelry should be paired with cheongsam, hanfu or formal dress to complement each other.but in fact, the adaptability of national style jewelry is very high, especially the rise of new chinese style, which makes the adaptability area of national style jewelry wider, and it can also be applied to daily styles.for example, new national-style jewelry such as jade double-ring earrings embellished with rubies and enamel gourd necklaces combine traditional craftsmanship with more varieties of jewelry, and the designs are also younger. pair jade bracelets with a white t-shirt, and pair filigree earrings with a commuting shirt. not only are they consistent, but they also have a unique flavor.
finally, don’t be rigid, open your mind and choose boldly. jewelry can be “played with”. i believe that the unique charm of chinese-style jewelry will definitely brighten your overall look!
