商晚期/西周早期至清代 玉魚 一組十二件
Fish (yu 魚) are among the most auspicious motifs in Chinese art. As the word for fish is a homophone for 'surplus' or 'abundance' (yu 餘), fish symbolise prosperity, wealth, and the wish for continual plenty: (年年有餘, 'may there be abundance year after year').
Compare the white jade fish pendant to a similar one, Ming dynasty, illustrated by Gu Fang, (中國出土玉器全集), vol.1, Beijing, 2005, p.71. See also three related pendants in the shape of a fish, late Shang dynasty, illustrated in ., vol.4, p.53, p.72 and p.135.
