About the Item

Rich in symbolism and history, this antique jade pendant features the classic double fish (Pisces) motif, a design long associated with abundance, harmony, and prosperity in Chinese culture. Carved from pale celadon jade and framed with a simple 585 yellow gold bail, the pendant preserves the elegant restraint typical of late Qing dynasty craftsmanship. The twin fish are delicately mirrored, creating a balanced composition that feels both artistic and meaningful. Dating to the late Qing dynasty to early Republican period (circa 1900), the jade displays a traditional texture known as “冬瓜囊” (winter melon texture) - a softly translucent appearance with a gentle, misty structure that collectors often recognize in antique jade. The carving highlights the flowing forms of the fish while maintaining the smooth, tactile polish prized in historic jade works. Measuring approximately 26.00 mm by 25.00 mm and weighing 6.41 grams, the pendant offers a substantial yet comfortable presence when worn. The gold bail is crafted in 585 yellow gold (14K) and stamped “58,” complementing the soft green tone of the jade while providing a durable modern suspension for the antique carving. An intriguing historical detail lies in the jade’s origin. Pieces like this were often sewn onto Qing dynasty hats or garments, worn by both adults and children as symbols of protection, status, and good fortune. Today, this pendant transforms that heritage into a wearable jewel. Whether chosen for its cultural symbolism, antique character, or refined beauty, it makes a meaningful addition to a jade collection or a thoughtful gift for someone who appreciates history and artistry. ----------------------------------------------------- 冬瓜囊 (Winter Melon) Jade Dimensions: 26.00mm x 25.00mm 14K Yellow Gold Stamped 58 Total Weight: 6.41g
