Jade has five virtues, and the theory of five virtues comes from the "five virtues" in Xu Shen's Shuo Wen Jie Zi in the Eastern Han Dynasty. The original text said: "Jade, the beauty of stone, has five virtues: warmth and benevolence; From the outside, we can know that the right side is also right; Its sound is soothing, its design is far-listening, and its wisdom is also; Perseverance, courage; Ruilian is not awkward, and it is clean. "
