Description
The nephrite jade carved in shape of two conjugated ripe pomegranate. The jade shows creme-grayish with golden russet inclusions.
The pomegranate (shiliu ??) signifies the sixth month of the lunar calendar and, because of its many seeds, represents fertility, offspring and descendants.
For this reason, the pomegranate is an important symbol in Chinese marriages.
The first character (shi ?) has the same pronunciation as the word for "generations" (shi ?) and thus strengthens the meaning as generations of descendants.
Dimension: 72.78mm H x 45.17mm W
