The Jadeite Leave
In Chinese and Asian cultures, jade leaves, particularly those carved from jadeite, symbolize preciousness, prosperity, and protection, often associated with children and grandchildren. The saying "golden branch, jade leaf" traditionally referred to the emperor's daughter, highlighting nobility and high status. Gifting a jade leaf conveys admiration, love, and a wish for the recipient's well-being.
