Nine Nine return to One series draws inspiration from the spiritual and philosophical ideas of Taoism and Buddhism. The name borrows the philosophical idea of Nine Nine return to One that means everything returns to its origin from the Tao-e Ching, and the tenacious spirit of the Journey to the West in which Tang Monk and his disciples experienced 81 tribulations. Nine Nine return to One expresses that wearers can firmly hold onto their inner beliefs and achieve their own life fulfillment, thus gaining spiritual wealth. Besides, the nine-petaled lotus, a special symbol in Buddhism, symbolizes perseverance and echoes Nine Nine return to One, as the lotus implies holiness and auspiciousness, and its seed can remain uncorrupted for thousands of years and then sprouts with suitable conditions.

In addition, the rotatable nine-color cylinder is functional and interesting. Based on color psychology, the nine colors representing different emotions and energies help wearers regulate their positive emotions, and any color can be perfectly matched with various clothing, showing the versatility.

The handmade resin craftsmanship ensures that every detail is meticulously polished, with extremely high requirements for flatness, evenness, etc., embodying the spirit of craftsmanship and aligning with the design concept. The earring weighs only 7g to enhance wearing comfort, bringing wearers a sense of extreme lightness and joy.

Nine Nine return to One series has unique characteristics and fashionable shapes, carrying traditional Chinese culture and beliefs, and conveying positive and beautiful emotional values to users.
