The I-shaped pendant is a type of jade ware created by the Warring States and Han dynasties. It is used together with Sinan Pei and Gang Mao as a thing to ward off evil spirits. The I-shaped pendant is square, and there is a perforated jade pendant in the middle that looks like an "I-shape", which is characterized by two gaps on the left and right sides of the square jade pendant. The shape looks like an "I-shape". In ancient times, the I-shaped wear had three functions, one was equivalent to the bead, the second was the decoration on the robe, and the third was the evil spirit-ward protection. The I-shaped pendants of the Warring States and Han dynasties were generally very small, with a diameter of no more than three centimeters.
Liu Guangyuan, the chief connoisseur of the Pinzang Pavilion, who has 30 years of experience in the appraisal of antiques and ancient artworks, said that the I-shaped pendants of the Warring States and Han dynasties are very small, and the craftsmanship is light and unornamented. After the Song Dynasty, the I-shaped pendant developed to a variety of decorations, and the appearance gradually evolved from a flat rectangular to a square. In the Ming Dynasty, the meaning contained in the Gongzi Pei did not change, but it was innovative in form. On the one hand, the size is enlarged, on the other hand, the curved convex surface on both sides of the I-shaped pendant disappears, and the jade pendant tends to be flat and square as a whole. The decorative techniques mostly use bas-relief and Yin carved lines to carve various exquisite ornaments, such as the common claw pattern, dragon pattern, phoenix pattern, flower pattern, as well as various Buddha statues and Sanskrit.
