A Thousand Whys

Why "jade and silk" is peaceful allusion?

18 Feb 2022

Description

Jade and silk are two things that are dear to the hearts of Chinese people. It is therefore no surprise that they are part of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics. The design of the Beijing 2022 medals is based on Chinese ancient jade pendants while their ribbons are made of silk. The combination of jade and silk symbolizes "peace" – and the medals' design is inspired by a Chinese legend from ancient times. A Thousand Whys tells you more about the beautiful allusion of the duo of jade and silk.
