Reverse side of the Medal and the Ribbon

Reverse side of the medal

On their reverse side, the medals are inlaid with jade with the Beijing Games emblem engraved in the metal centerpiece. The medal for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games is designed with inspiration coming from "bi", China's ancient jade piece inscribed with dragon pattern. The medals, made of gold and jade, symbolize nobility and virtue and are embodiment of traditional Chinese values of ethics and honor, sending forth strong Chinese flavor.
