What Is Si Dian Jin — And Why It Still Matters Today
Si Dian Jin (四点金), meaning “four touches of gold”, is a cherished Chinese wedding tradition. It is traditionally gifted as four gold jewellery pieces — a necklace, earrings, bracelet or bangle, and ring — symbolising blessings, protection, and a warm welcome for the bride into her new family and their promise to care of her.
While the meaning remains timeless, modern couples are asking a practical question:
Can Si Dian Jin honour tradition and still fit into everyday life after the wedding?
With lifestyles changing and gold prices rising, understanding the true value of Si Dian Jin matters more than ever.
