Why do people like to carve bat patterns on jadeite? What is the special meaning behind it?

Every time bats are mentioned, everyone is very scared, especially in some rural areas. When you suddenly see a bat on the roof at night, you will be scared. But for some reason, this pattern can often be seen on many jade carvings, which makes people feel very strange. Normally, people hate this kind of animal, so why does it become a decorative theme on jade? After all, as a product of jade that has continued the culture for thousands of years, the ancients should not have understood this truth, especially in ancient times, people were more taboo about patterns. Next, let’s analyze in detail why this kind of pattern often appears on jade?

If you read the word "bat" carefully, you will find that it contains the sound of "Fu". Since ancient times, people have liked to be blessed. Even now, the most popular thing to hear is that you can be blessed. After hearing these words, you will feel very happy in your heart, so this pattern will be put into the jade carving. In this way, when you give it to others, it means you are sending your blessings. Especially on many jade pendants, you can see upside-down bats, which means that the blessings given to you have arrived. It is a very good meaning, so you can pay a little attention to it when giving gifts.

Although many people don't like real bats, jadeite carved into the shape of bats and jadeite carved with patterns are still worth promoting. Especially when giving it to others, if you say "I'm convinced" and send it to them, I believe the other person will smile immediately. It is a particularly pleasing approach. So don't think that some animals are not very pleasing in today's society. In fact, the cultural meanings behind them are beyond everyone's imagination. That is why traditional craftsmen are willing to add these patterns to jade. At the same time, if the bat holds money in its mouth, it also has a beautiful meaning.

If you learn a little about it, you will find that various bat patterns can often be seen in the entire jade industry, but people usually don’t know much about them. This also shows a kind of auspicious connotation. And sometimes combining all these beautiful things together represents a better meaning. For example, putting bats and clouds together means that your good luck is about to come. From this we can see that Chinese culture is so long-standing that even today we can find beautiful symbols in various cultural elements to meet everyone's various requirements.

Although many people do not like bats, from another perspective, the good meaning brought by this animal can be completely eliminated. The ugly appearance on the surface can be completely eliminated. Everyone hopes to be blessed. When blessings are sent to the home, the mood will become more comfortable. The ones I want to thank most are the jade carvers. They can carve this ugly-looking animal into something very cute and easy to accept. Thinking of this, I suddenly felt the greatness of the culture, as well as the jade practitioners' understanding of the culture. I also hope that when you buy jade in the future, you can pay more attention to this kind of auspicious pattern, and perhaps try to buy one home.
