These beautiful earrings are made with two pieces of antique green jade carved with a double fish.  The jade was originally used to decorate clothing worn by the nobility in China.

The fish is symbolic of abundance, prosperity, wealth and persistence.  A pair of fish symbolize a happy marriage.  

Worn by Imperial families for centuries, jade is a very spiritual stone.  It has been called the jewel of heaven, the stone of immortality, a symbol of purity and is believed to embody the five cardinal virtues:  charity, modesty, courage, justice and wisdom.  From cloudy white to golden brown, light to dark green, to rare lavender, this most highly prized Asian stone is of many shades.  Jade is treasured for its magical powers to increase life span, cure all ailments and ward off evil spirits.
