This is a finely carved white jade ornament from 18th–19th century Qing dynasty China, depicting a pair of fish arranged in a circular formation. In Chinese symbolism, fish (especially in pairs) represent abundance, harmony, and marital bliss. The detailed rendering of scales, fins, and eyes is skillfully executed, while the swirling motifs between the two fish evoke the movement of flowing water and enhance the dynamic balance of the composition. The jade used has aged to a soft tone with natural patina and surface alterations that speak to its antiquity. A small protruding peg on the reverse suggests it may have once served as a belt ornament, adornment, or ritual accessory. Overall, this piece remains in good condition and embodies both the auspicious cultural significance and the serene beauty characteristic of classical Chinese jade craftsmanship.
