Character Evolution
Explore how each character evolved over 3000+ years of Chinese writing history.
In oracle bone script,「玉」depicts three jade discs strung together on a cord — a pictograph.
In bronze script, the form of strung jade in「玉」became more regularized, with the cord knots removed.
In seal script,「玉」resembles three jade pieces linked together. The 'Shuowen' explains: 'Yu is the most beautiful of stones.'
From the strung-jade pictograph of oracle bone script to its simplified modern form,「玉」carries the deep Chinese affection for jade — 'the gentleman compares his virtue to jade, gentle and lustrous.' Using「玉」in a name signifies purity and nobility.
