The crane is a symbol of immortality, and along with the deer, is often seen in the company of Immortals. In some popular displays for birthdays, the crane serves as the vehicle for Shoulao, the God of Longevity, bearing him aloft over the eight Immortals. Peaches are another symbol for longevity, and the two of them together in this piece, reinforce the desire and wish for a long and happy life.
Compare with a related white jade carving of a crane and peaches, 18th/19th century, which was sold at Christie's New York, 25 March 2022, lot 1236.
