Wu Collection, Upper Volume Radical: Jade (yù) Pei Kangxi Strokes: 11 Page 732, Entry 01 Pronounced pei. In Jade Treasury (Yupian), it refers to a jade pendant. Originally written as pei. Some versions add the jade radical and write it as pei. In Extensive Rhymes (Guangyun), it refers to a jade ornament worn on the belt. According to the Illustrations of the Three Ritual Classics (Sanli Tu), the jade pendant consists of two horizontal pieces of jade, each five inches long and one inch wide. Below these hang two semicircular pieces of jade, each with a diameter of three inches. In the center are chongya (perforated jade tusks) and beads arranged between them. The top and bottom consist of horizontal jade pieces, and the semicircular jade discs are the huang; the chongya are threaded horizontally through the center of the huang, interspersed with dark-colored beads. For detailed information, please refer to the entry for the character pei under the Radical: Person (rén).
