新生児の生後一ヶ月、新婚、合格、昇進、寿の宴、神様への謝礼などをお祝いする際、金鎖片という古代南京錠の形をする金のアクセサリーを送る伝統があります。富、安全、幸せ、長寿をしっかりと鎖し固めておくと意味します。 It is a Chinese tradition to give golden charms to one month old newborn babies, newlyweds, students with good grades on entrance exams, people receiving promotions, or as birthday gifts for elderly people or offerings to gods for wishes that have been granted. The golden charm symbolizes good blessings, and it is referred to in Chinese as a “golden lock charm”, because it is believed that it can lock in wealth, peace, longevity, and happiness.
