Kaiyuan Temple: Home to timeless Tang Dynasty architecture and living spiritual traditions.

Teochew Kaiyuan Temple was built during the Tang Dynasty and has remained intact for thousands of years. It is an important Buddhist temple in the Lingnan region. Its architecture is both grand and exquisite, featuring pavilions and towers arranged in harmonious clusters.The intricately carved beams and painted rafters display unparalleled craftsmanship, while the layered eaves and bracket sets reveal the artisans' superb building techniques and profound cultural heritage in every detail. The overall layout of the temple follows the principles of feng shui and the five elements theory. The arrangement of courtyards, halls, and Buddhist statues all emphasize cosmic order and yin-yang balance, embodying the philosophy of harmonious coexistence between humanity and nature.

Inspired by the profound cultural atmosphere of Kaiyuan Temple and the principles of the Five Elements, KAIAURA invited the feng shui master from Kaiyuan Temple to personally guide the design of its bracelets. The master is proficient in Buddhism, Feng Shui and the Five Elements theory, and has conducted in-depth research on the balance between natural energies and the human spirit. He combined the concept of the Five Elements, carefully considering each aspect such as material selection, color matching, the number of beads and their arrangement, to ensure that each bracelet can resonate with the energy field of the wearer.

Each bracelet not only showcases exquisite craftsmanship but also carries the meanings of auspiciousness, protection and blessings. Designed for both comfort and aesthetic appeal, these pieces extend traditional wisdom into modern life while allowing wearers to experience a cultural and spiritual resonance.

KAIAURA upholds cultural heritage and social responsibility by dedicating a portion of proceeds from each bracelet to preserving and perpetuating traditional culture. 10% of all revenue is specifically allocated to the restoration and maintenance of Teochew Kaiyuan Temple, ensuring that its thousand-year-old Buddhist legacy endures. This enables every bracelet wearer to participate in cultural preservation and transmission while enjoying beautiful jewelry.
