Abstract

As an important part of traditional Chinese culture, the 24 solar Terms contain rich spiritual connotations. However, from the perspective of design, the 24 Solar terms culture exists more in two-dimensional space. Although it shows the beauty of the solar terms to a certain extent, it still has great limitations on people's all-round experience of the broad and profound Chinese traditional culture and its connotation. Jewelry has a long history of development in China, which has undergone social baptism and style evolution in different periods. This paper studies the 24 solar terms and jewelry creative products respectively, aiming at combining the 24 solar terms with jewelry design, and bringing the 24 solar terms into people's eyes based on the principle of ornamental and practical jewelry products. Carry forward and inherit the culture of the 24 Solar Terms.
