This silver-lock pendant for grabbing test is daintily and exquisitely made with strong folk elements. On a baby’s one-year-old birthday, a grabbing test is held, i.e., a folk activity of placing objects on the birthday celebration and let the baby grab for telling his/her future. However, it is dangerous to let babies grab objects like scissors and abacus. Thus intelligent Chinese ancestors invented ornaments like silver locks for grabbing, which are not only joyous but also safe. For grabbing, the grandma would cover the baby's eyes with red silk; the mother would lead the baby's hand to approach the objects. The object touched by the middle finger of the baby would attract corresponding congratulations given by guests all around.
