Journey back with us into the Forbidden City, Qing Dynasty (1644 -1911)

The Dynasty that commissioned Red as its as the international face of China

The Dynasty that unified the empire through the colour red.

“南红玛瑙” (Nan Hong Agate) was so revered by Kings that it was restricted and reserved only for personal, imperials, and ceremonial uses. They were over mined that they were almost exhausted.

Its fiery hue, carved by the forces of nature over millions of years, symbolises not only strength—but also emotional warmth and passion.

Once worn by royalty, Nan Hong Agate was believed to bring harmony to relationships, and represented the lifeblood of our veins.
