The meaning behind this piece
The peach and the god of longevity are both symbols of long life, while the bat (fu) puns on the word for blessing, so together the piece reads as 'blessings and longevity'. It is a well-wishing motif traditionally given at birthdays and celebrations — a cultural sentiment, not a promise of health or fortune.
Sizing and wear
At 73 x 37.8 mm (about 2.9 x 1.5 in) and 120.7 g, it is a solid, elongated hand piece that sits heavily in the palm. Ask Yufu Jade to confirm the depth and provide a scale photograph.
Keeping this piece at its best

Is this a good birthday gift?
Its longevity theme makes it a natural choice for a birthday or milestone gift. Confirm the current photos and dimensions with Yufu Jade first, since each piece is individual.
Does the blessings-and-longevity theme hold collecting appeal?
Auspicious themes like this are popular with collectors of Chinese jade, especially pieces that combine two figures on one stone. Appeal depends on the individual carving, so confirm current photos with Yufu Jade first.
