About This Piece

This piece is white Hetian seed jade with jujube-red skin, and its title is Nian Nian You Yu, "abundance year after year" — the classic pairing of a fish with lotus, though the listing does not detail the exact composition. Listed dimensions are 57 x 36 mm and the weight is 66.3 g, with the depth confirmed per piece. Because the source description is brief, ask Yufu Jade for current photos and an in-hand shot so you can see precisely how the fish and lotus are rendered and where the red skin sits.

The meaning behind this piece

年年有余 (nian nian you yu) means "surplus year after year". The fish (鱼, yu) shares its sound with the word for surplus (余), and the lotus (莲, lian) with the word for "successive", so a fish and lotus together are a long-standing way to wish for lasting plenty in the home.

Sizing and wear

At 57 x 36 mm and 66.3 g, this is a compact hand piece about 2.2 x 1.4 in, easy to hold and carry.

Keeping this piece at its best

  • Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry it before putting it away.
  • Keep it clear of perfume, chemicals and ultrasonic cleaners.
  • Store it in a padded pouch or box so the skin and polish are protected.
