Chinese Lock Charm
Lock charms are Chinese numismatic charms shaped like ancient Chinese security locks. Their shape resembles a basket or in most cases the Chinese character for "concave" (凹).
The pendants tend to be flat, without any moving parts, or the functionality of the locks they symbolize. They are decorated with both Chinese characters and symbols.
Like other types of Chinese numismatic charms, lock charms are meant to protect the wearers from harm, misfortune, and evil spirits, and to bless them with good luck, longevity, and a high social status rank (through the imperial examination system).

Gourd:
The Hulu, or gourd, carries rich cultural symbolism. Traditionally, it represents good fortune, longevity, and protection. Its round, full shape is seen as a vessel that gathers blessings, while its two-chamber form symbolizes harmony between heaven and earth. Many people believe the Hulu can ward off negative energy, attract prosperity, and promote health and well-being. Because of these positive meanings, it’s often used as a charm or decoration to invite luck, peace, and abundant life into one’s home.
