While the carp ( 鯉) serves as a visual pun for both profit ( 利) and ability ( 力), the subject of the present lot also evokes the Daoist Zhuangzi's famous reflection on the happiness of fish. The dappled stone, particularly in the brown markings delineating the fish, suggests bubbles rising in clear water, giving the impression of the carp moving serenely along the riverbed.
For another agate snuff bottle which was lightly carved to suggest the shape of a fish, 1760-1850 and attributed to the Official School, see Bonhams New York, 23 March 2026, lot 196.
