What does it mean to carve goldfish and lotus flowers on jade?
"Fish" symbolizes the abundance of life, and people often use "like a duck to water" to express the happiness of life and work. And "happiness from now on" is homophonic with goldfish. In ancient times, "gold" represented girls and "jade" represented boys. Combining the two means a room full of children. Goldfish also means "more than a year", symbolizing happiness in life.
Lotus is a famous traditional flower in China. The flowers and leaves are delicate and fragrant, which hides people's hearts. There is a fearless and muddy temperament in the face of the scorching sun. Therefore, in people's minds, lotus is the embodiment of truth, goodness and beauty, a sign of good fortune and prosperity, a sacred and clean name in Buddhism, and a seed of friendship. Lotus is a symbol of holiness and purity: many children are blessed.
