This wearable piece is carved from white Xinjiang Hetian jade (nephrite) described as fine, lustrous and oily. A lively horse gallops inside a rounded ring, its mane flowing, while a bat is carved above the ring to complete the blessings-on-horseback reading. Listed dimensions are 55.5 x 8.4 mm and the listed weight is 42.7 g, a slim form that sits well as a pendant and can also be held. Ask Yufu Jade for current photographs and confirmation of the thickness before ordering.

The meaning behind this piece
The horse stands for speed and progress, while the bat (fu) is a homophone for blessing (fu), so a horse with a bat reads in Chinese as a wish that blessings arrive promptly. As with all such motifs it is a cultural association, not a promised outcome.
Sizing and wear
At 55.5 x 8.4 mm and 42.7 g, this is a slim pendant that is easy to wear, yet solid enough to hold comfortably in the fingers (about 2.2 x 0.3 inches).
Keeping this piece at its best
Wipe it softly with a dry or barely damp cloth after wearing.
Avoid perfumes, lotions and household cleaners near the stone.
Keep it in a padded jewellery box or soft pouch when not worn.

Use the central evidence guide to understand what a report can establish, how to verify its issuer and which current-condition views to request.
No. This individual piece has already been collected and remains online as a reference. You can ask Yufu Jade to look for a similar material, form or carving subject; any new piece is documented and quoted separately.
Can this pendant be worn and also held as a hand piece?
Yes - at 55.5 x 8.4 mm it is slim and light enough to wear on a cord, but its rounded ring shape is also pleasant to hold and turn in the hand.
What does the horse and bat mean?
The horse suggests progress and the bat sounds like blessing, so together they express a cultural wish that good things arrive quickly, rather than a guarantee.
