Photos and videos are contractual, this is a unique piece, you will receive exactly this Taoist Talisman Necklace.
I created this Taoist Talisman Necklace with the intention of bringing together in a single piece the protective strength of the Chinese ritual sword, the mineral depth of black Ta Qing jade, and the symbolic power of the great Taoist guardians. At the center of the necklace, the Bì xié jiàn 辟邪剑 sword evokes the blade intended to ward off evil, cut off harmful influences, and assert a guardian presence around the wearer. At the crossroads of designer jewelry, Taoist amulet, protective talisman, and ritual weapon worn on the body, this necklace asserts a radical identity: that of a guardian object, designed to protect, symbolically cut, and powerfully accompany the wearer.
Carved from natural black Hetian nephrite jade, a major material in Chinese civilization, this sword carries the idea of righteousness, protection, density, and inner stability. The Yazi dragon, a symbol of combative courage, responds to Xuanwu of Wudang Shan, the black turtle entwined with a snake, a figure of the North, water, longevity, and defense.
This Feng Shui necklace was designed as a guardian presence, a symbolic blade worn against harmful influences, troubled energies, fears, invisible blockages, and intrusive forces. Its symbolic function can be summarized in a few words: protect, repel, cut, stabilize, and affirm.
Dark, powerful, and deliberately radical. I designed it as a spiritual protection jewel, intended for those who are looking for a statement necklace, a rare piece, a Feng Shui necklace charged with Chinese symbols, or a Taoist protection necklace with a strong visual presence.

A Bì xié jiàn 辟邪剑 sword in black Ta Qing jade, carved on both sides, at the crossroads of Taoist esotericism and ethnology
The central element of this Taoist Talisman Necklace is a large sword carved from natural black Ta Qing jade. Carved on both sides, this black jade sword has a rare, imposing, and immediately identifiable presence.
This piece evokes the Bì xié jiàn 辟邪剑, literally a sword intended to repel evil, ward off harmful influences, and keep troubled forces at bay. It can be understood as a symbolic object of defense: not just a weapon, but a cultural, ritual, and protective sign, imbued with a threshold function between the visible and the invisible.
In the Chinese Taoist imagination, the sword represents clarity, decision, severance, and protection. It cuts what needs to be separated, severs unwanted ties, repels harmful presences, and establishes a boundary around the wearer. In black Ta Qing jade, this symbolic blade gains even more depth: the dark density of the material reinforces the idea of anchoring, righteousness, silence, and contained power.
At the heart of this Taoist Talisman Necklace, the sword becomes a personal spiritual blade. Worn on the body, it descends from the chest like a ritual weapon pointed downwards, ready to cut what needs to be cut. This Taoist sword pendant gives the necklace its full strength: it transforms the jewel into a protection talisman, and the talisman into a true guardian piece.
Hetian nephrite jade: nobility, protection, and righteousness
Black Ta Qing jade, called Ta Qing Yu — 塔青玉 — is a dark variety of Chinese jade, historically associated with the cultural area of Xinjiang, Qiemo — 且末县 — Hetian / Hotan jade, and the Kunlun mountains. Its deep color, dark greenish-black, very dense bottle green, or almost black depending on the light, brings a serious, silent, and martial presence.
In this Taoist Talisman Necklace, black jade gives the sword a dimension of depth, anchoring, restraint, and contained power. It is not a decorative or luminous jade in the classical sense: it is a dark, noble, dense, and protective material.
Hetian nephrite jade, also called Hetian Yu, holds a major place in the cultural, artistic, and spiritual history of China. For millennia, jade has been associated with nobility, purity, moral integrity, harmony, protection, and inner stability.
This Taoist Talisman Necklace combines the black Ta Qing jade sword with 14 natural Hetian nephrite jade beads. These beads bring a softer mineral light around the large dark blade. They reinforce the idea of balance, righteousness, noble protection, and inner strength.
The contrast between the black jade of the sword, the natural nephrite jade of the beads, the deep red of the sandalwood, and the copper, gives the necklace a very legible symbolic structure: obscure protection, moral clarity, vital fire, blessing, and spiritual authority.
For lovers of natural jade necklaces, this Taoist Talisman Necklace brings together several essential aspects: a strong material, a deep Chinese symbolism, a rare aesthetic, a sculptural presence, and a very assertive talismanic function.
Yazi Dragon 睚眦: frontal protection and combative courage
The guard of the sword depicts the Yazi dragon — 睚眦 — one of the nine sons of the dragon in Chinese tradition. Yazi is a dragon associated with weapons, sabers, swords, weapon guards, and symbols of martial power. His name evokes a furious gaze, retaliation, bravery, and the energy of just confrontation.
In this Taoist Talisman Necklace, the Yazi dragon gives the sword an even more direct function, a symbol of active defense. Yazi represents the strength that does not bend, courage in the face of injustice, lucidity in conflict, and the will to protect what must be protected.
Yazi symbolizes a sharp, loyal, decisive, and controlled Yang energy. He is the dragon who guards the threshold, who responds, who defends, who cuts with justice. In this Taoist Talisman Necklace, his presence transforms the sword into a true martial protection talisman.
Yazi symbolizes notably:
⚔️ Combative courage
🔥 Just fury
🛡️ Defense of a territory or inner space
⛰️ Resolve in the face of adversity
🐉 The energy of loyal and decisive action
🧿 Direct protection against harmful influences
👁️ Self-affirmation in the face of external pressures
🗣️ The power of speech, decision, and positioning

This Taoist Talisman Necklace can therefore be understood as a necklace of courage, a necklace of protection, a spiritual protection jewel, and a piece of inner authority.
Xuanwu Wudang Shan: black turtle, snake, and protection of the North
On the side of the necklace is an amulet depicting Xuanwu, the black turtle entwined with a snake. This amulet directly connects this Taoist Talisman Necklace to the spiritual universe of Wudang Shan, a sacred mountain of Chinese Taoism.
Xuanwu is associated with the North, winter, water, depth, protection, and longevity. Its traditional form, a turtle around which a snake coils, evokes armor, vigilance, stability, patience, and transformation.
In this Taoist Talisman Necklace, Xuanwu balances the more ardent strength of Yazi. Where the Yazi dragon acts as the fire of just retaliation, Xuanwu brings water, calm, depth, silent defense, and anchoring. The turtle evokes the shell, durability, longevity, and protection. The snake evokes vigilance, flexibility, instinctive intelligence, and transformation.
This association between Yazi and Xuanwu gives the necklace a very complete symbolic strength.
Copper bats: happiness, luck, and Feng Shui
This Taoist Talisman Necklace is also adorned with copper bats. In Chinese culture, the bat is associated with happiness, luck, blessings, and prosperity. This symbol is very present in Chinese art, decorative objects, talismans, and Feng Shui.
The bats bring a beneficial dimension to this piece. They add an idea of blessing within a very protective object. They bridge the gap between spiritual defense and openness to good fortune.
Thanks to this presence, this Taoist Talisman Necklace also becomes a Feng Shui necklace, combining protection, courage, luck, prosperity, stability, and positive energy.
Red sandalwood, gold-plated copper, and material balance
Red sandalwood brings an organic warmth, a precious wood presence, and a more embodied energy. Its deep red color dialogues with the martial power of Yazi: inner fire, vitality, courage, discipline, and presence.
Red sandalwood is not presented here as a strictly Taoist liturgical material. It is rather used as a noble, warm, dense, and meditative wood, capable of balancing the mineral coolness of black jade. It brings a more living, more earthy, and more human dimension to the necklace.
The gold-plated copper spacers add a solar, ritual, and precious touch. They connect the materials to each other and reinforce the ceremonial aspect of this Obsidian Dragons creation.
This Taoist Talisman Necklace is therefore constructed as a complete symbolic architecture: a protective blade, a guardian dragon, a Wudang Shan amulet, blessings of happiness, natural jade, red wood, and gold-plated copper.
Symbolic function and use of the necklace
This Taoist Talisman Necklace can be worn as a protective talisman, a Taoist jewel, a Taoist amulet, a Taoist protection necklace, a Feng Shui necklace, or a spiritual protection jewel. Its main function is to symbolically protect the wearer, reinforce their courage, stabilize their inner energy, and assert a strong presence.
