Zodiac Peachwood Pendant – Protective Amulet Necklace

Symbolism Rooted in Tradition

For over 2,000 years, peachwood (tao mu) has held a revered place in Chinese folk culture as a symbol of longevity, protection, and good fortune. Ming dynasty physician Li Shizhen noted in his Compendium of Materia Medica that peachwood's pungent essence was believed to ward off negative energy — a belief still honored today. Each pendant features one of the twelve zodiac animals (Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, Pig), representing the wearer's birth year and personal guardian spirit.

Crafted from Mount Tai Peachwood

We source our peachwood from Mount Tai, long considered the finest grade for talisman carving due to its dense grain and durability. Every pendant is hand-finished by skilled artisans who specialize in traditional Chinese woodcarving, ensuring crisp detail in each zodiac figure.
