Jin Bu 禁步, Hanfu Accessory

What is Jin Bu?

Jin Bu (Chinese: 禁步 ; pinyin: jìn bù), directly translated as “walking ban” or “step ban”, is an ancient accessory that often matches with Hanfu.

Jade pendants of various shapes are threaded into a string and tied around the waist with colored threads, originally used to press down the skirt hem.

When wearing Jin Bu for walking, the sound is rhythmic and appropriate. In this point, the purpose of Jin Bu is similar to Buyao (步摇). It sways when you walk.
