簪佩: The second character has the fanqie phonetic notation pei (陪) + mei (昧). Zheng's commentary on the Zhouli states: '珮玉 refers to jade worn on the body.' The Da Dai Liji states: 'On the jade pendant, above is the green transversal bar, and below are double semi-circular jade ornaments; between the transversal bar and pendant teeth, fine pearls are set to fit between them. The Son of Heaven wears white jade; dukes and marquises wear dark jade; grand masters wear aquatic-green jade; heirs-apparent wear yushi jade; servicemen wear ruanmei stones; Confucius wore a five-inch ivory ring.' Gu Yewang states: 'Any object worn on the person is called pei.' The Shuowen jiezi states: 'A large sash. Analyzed as following the semantic component "person" (人) and the phonetic component ji (几). The pei must have a cloth; the cloth is called za (帀). It is also written with the jade radical as 珮.'
