1. Material: This hand string is mainly composed of black beads, golden decorative beads, and a colorful Pi Xiu accessory. The black beads are likely made of obsidian, with a smooth surface, uniform color, presenting a deep black color and having a certain luster. The golden decorative beads should be made of metal. After fine craftsmanship treatment, the surface is carved with complex patterns, looking gorgeous and delicate.

The hand string is strung together with an elastic rope, making it convenient to wear.
2. Craftsmanship: The carving craftsmanship of the golden decorative beads is exquisite, with clear pattern details and smooth lines, demonstrating a high level of craftsmanship. The shape of the Pi Xiu accessory is vivid, with rich details. For example, the eyes, teeth, and hair of the Pi Xiu are all vividly depicted.

The black beads are polished to be round, with uniform sizes, and the surface is smooth without flaws.
3. Design: The overall design style is gorgeous and full of traditional charm.

As the central accessory of the hand string, the Pi Xiu not only plays a decorative role but also adds cultural connotations. The design of the hand string is not only suitable for daily wearing to show the wearer's taste but also has certain cultural meanings and is suitable as a gift.

II. Spiritual Significance

1. Attracting Wealth: In traditional Chinese culture, Pi Xiu is a kind of auspicious beast that feeds on gold and silver treasures and only takes in without expelling. Therefore, it is regarded as a symbol of attracting wealth. By wearing this hand string with a Pi Xiu accessory, people hope to attract wealth, bring good financial luck, and increase personal wealth accumulation.
2. Dispelling Evil and Ensuring Safety: In traditional culture, obsidian is believed to have the function of dispelling evil spirits, which can absorb negative energy and protect the wearer from the interference of negative auras. And Pi Xiu also has the meaning of dispelling evil and protecting the house. The combination of the two enhances the hand string's effect of dispelling evil and ensuring safety, bringing a sense of psychological security to the wearer.
3. Good Luck and Prosperity: Gold symbolizes nobility, good luck, and prosperity in Chinese culture. The golden decorative beads and the Pi Xiu accessory on the hand string convey the beautiful wishes of good luck and prosperity, implying that the wearer's life can be happy and all things can go smoothly.

III. Maintenance Instructions

1. Avoid Collisions: Since the metal decorative beads and the Pi Xiu accessory on the hand string may be relatively fragile and easily damaged by severe collisions, be careful during the wearing process and avoid contact with hard objects. It is best to take off the hand string and keep it properly when exercising or engaging in physical labor.
2. Prevent Oxidation: The metal part is prone to oxidation and discoloration. Avoid exposing the hand string to a humid air for a long time. You can regularly wipe the metal decorative beads and the Pi Xiu accessory with a dry and soft cloth to maintain their luster. If there is slight oxidation, you can use a special metal cleaner to clean it according to the instructions.
3. Keep Away from Chemical Substances: Avoid the hand string coming into contact with chemical substances such as perfume, cosmetics, and detergents. These substances may corrode the metal part, damage the luster of the obsidian beads, or cause the colorful part to fade. If it comes into contact accidentally, rinse it with clean water immediately and dry it.
4. Regular Cleaning: You can regularly wipe the hand string gently with a soft damp cloth to remove surface dust and stains. For stubborn stains, you can clean it with a small amount of mild soapy water, and then rinse it thoroughly with clean water and dry it. Pay special attention to protecting the colorful part of the Pi Xiu accessory during cleaning to avoid color fading caused by vigorous wiping.
5. Storage Precautions: When not wearing it, it is recommended to store the hand string separately in a soft cloth bag or jewelry box to avoid friction with other jewelry and prevent scratching the surface. At the same time, avoid the hand string being squeezed to prevent deformation.
