Gold of Hairpins and Bracelets (钗钏金) — nayin of the jiazi cycle

Metal

The thirty nayin of the sixty-jiazi cycle — the classical five-element image each stem-branch pair carries.

钗钏金 Chāichuàn Jīn

庚戌辛亥,钗钏金

Gold of Hairpins and Bracelets images jewelry metal: pins and bangles, finely worked, glowing against the skin. This gold is no blade — it exists to adorn people: the most companionable of metals.

Destiny texts read it as refinement and the talent of taste: skilled at shaping good things into forms people want near them. Modern reading: the aesthetic temperament — beautifying and pleasing are scarce abilities; jewelry means nothing off the person, so the value lies in the fit with people.
