Above the sea of clouds, the first light.

The place

The Golden Summit of Mount Emei stands more than three thousand metres high. Before dawn, the top is already crowded with people waiting for the sunrise. The sea of clouds stretches to the horizon; then a thread of red light breaks through from beneath it — first a pale pink, then orange, then a deep red — until the whole sea of clouds is alight.

People on the mountain say that if you see the dawn glow from the Golden Summit, the whole year will be bright. In that moment everyone falls quiet, simply watching the light rise.

The design

Zhaoxia is cut from natural fire quartz into slim rondelle beads. The natural red veils inside the crystal look like light breaking through cloud — moving from an almost clear pale pink to a deep wine red, bead by bead, like a sunrise. Gold-tone spacers divide the strand, with one stone-set gold-tone centrepiece.

The meaning

Fire, in the Five Elements. Fire is the colour red, and stands for light, warmth and rising — the energy of sunrise. In folk tradition, red is the colour of good fortune and happy news. Like the dawn over the Golden Summit, may you brighten quietly, and light the way you want to go.
