About the Item
Exceptional pair of fish of Chinese origin sculpted in a single block of red jasper. The use of red jasper in these pieces not only adds beauty, but also gives them a symbolic meaning, since in many cultures, this stone is associated with vitality, strength and protection, which fits perfectly with the image of fish, symbols of fluidity, abundance and constant movement. The polished finish of the stone and its natural veins enhance its nuances, while the detailed carving on the fins and scales creates a contrast between the smooth and rough surfaces. The yellow eyes contrast with the body and increase the realism.
The symbolic relationship with Chinese culture also stands out; in Chinese tradition, fish have a strong meaning associated with prosperity, abundance and good fortune. They are usually represented in pairs, as in this case, which can symbolize marital harmony and happiness as a couple, a concept linked to Taoism and feng shui. In addition, red jasper in the Eastern tradition is associated with vital energy, protection and strength.
Thanks to its fluid lines, it almost seems to swim in the air. Collector's pieces, perfect as a gift and to decorate any environment.
