There are 108 eggplant nanmu beads, and one coral Buddha head is added every 27 eggplant nanmu beads. Three coral beads are worn to mark the twist, and red tourmaline is connected to the corner. The Buddha Head Pagoda is connected to the metal back cloud with a long yellow ribbon. The back cloud is inlaid with red tourmaline, and the bottom is connected to the pearl drop angle. It is a special tradition of the Qing Dynasty to use the “Chaozhu” as an ornament hanging on the chest of emperors, empresses, and ministers when wearing imperial robes. The “Imperial Ritual Ware Pattern”, which was ordered by Emperor Gaozong of the Qing Dynasty, clearly lists what form of the Chaozhu must be used for people of all kinds of ceremonies and identities. It can be seen that the Qing government has listed this decoration tradition as an important part of the clothing system.
