Wearing these jades means wearing "blessings", but do you know what kind of "blessings" you are wearing?

In the jade industry, there is a saying that goes "Jade must be crafted, the craftsmanship must have meaning, and the meaning must be auspicious." This sentence means that the carving shapes or patterns of jadeite jadeware all have certain meanings. This implication expresses people's pursuit and desire for a happy life. Therefore, in the eyes of many jade lovers, wearing jade is equivalent to wearing "blessings", but what kind of "blessings" are they wearing is a bit confusing~

In fact, among these "Fu", there are still several universal "Fu" that are suitable for all ages, and you can never go wrong no matter who you give them to. Today I will talk to you about these common jade themes.

1. Lucky Beans

The theme of lucky beans is quite standard and is very common in the jade market. Regardless of gender, age or status, if you choose to give gifts to friends but are not sure what subject to choose, Fudou can perfectly solve your problem. No matter how many lucky beans you choose, just make sure that the beans are round and clean.

To add, different numbers of beans have different meanings:

Two beans: represent good luck and blessing, and also symbolize the safety of mother and child. Mothers who are preparing for pregnancy or pregnant can wear two beans to bring good luck; three beans: represent happiness, good luck and longevity, and also symbolize winning three prizes in a row. Family members with elderly people or students who are preparing for exams can wear them; four beans: represent peace in all four seasons, and also symbolize full blessings and abundant fruits, representing hope and the beginning of a new life.

2. Fugua

The theme of lucky melon is also universal. In the early years, it meant hanging good fortune on one’s body, so the lucky melon is not a melon, but a “hang”. Over time, various shapes of fruits and vegetables have evolved, and the meanings of different shapes of fruits and vegetables are also different. A carved winter melon means "blessings as vast as the East Sea"; a carved pumpkin means "longevity as great as the Southern Mountains"; the "Fu" hanging is often paired with "Ruyi", with the "Fu" in the "Fu" hanging meaning happiness and good fortune.

Additional explanation: The slender and round jade melon looks like a graceful woman. The lucky "melon" has many seeds, which symbolizes many children and blessings, and the inheritance of wealth from generation to generation. The round and full jade melon, combined with leaves and auspicious animals, symbolizes good fortune, longevity and health. When worn by the elderly, it symbolizes longevity, happiness and health; the appearance of the jadeite fortune melon is simple and full of vitality. When children wear jadeite lucky melons, they look lively and cute, and at the same time give people a full and sunny mental state.

3. Gourd

The theme of gourd is also a relatively common style. "Gourd" has meant fertility and good fortune since ancient times, and it is loved by people because its sound is similar to "Fu Lu"!

Additional information: There are many styles of gourds. In addition to being made into pendants, they can also be used to make ring faces, earrings, etc. Generally speaking, however, jade gourds used as ornaments are more delicate, and are therefore more suitable for children, the elderly and women; if you are a male friend who likes gourds, you can wear it, or you can choose a jade gourd hand-held ornament.

4. Happiness is in sight

This theme is not as common in the market as the previous three, but it is indeed a good gift for friends. Fortune in sight is also known as bat in sight money. This style is more lively and interesting, and is also a subject suitable for the general public. In the jade carving industry, bats are a symbol of blessing, implying "blessings", "changing blessings", and "blessings everywhere". In short, it means full of blessings. Copper coins are a symbol of wealth and are meant to attract fortune. The combination of bats and copper coins represents blessings in sight and plenty of gold and silver.

Additional note: Since bats represent good fortune, the first thing to look at is the craftsmanship of the carving. Whether the bat's expression is lively and flexible, if it is stiff and ferocious, you can temporarily ignore it; there are many themes for carving bats, such as five blessings coming to the door, five blessings in harmony, great blessings from heaven, good fortune coming to the door, and blessings arriving.
