A coveted vintage articulated fish pendant crafted out of 14K Yellow Gold with bright red glass eyes from circa 1950-70s.
A wonderful tactile piece, there are 9 segments to the design of the fish with etched scales on each segment of the body segment that articulates to mimic a swimming fish.
Symbolizing luck, the Chinese character for fish (yu 鱼) is pronounced the same as the Chinese character for surplus (yu 余). The fish symbol is frequently used to symbolize the wish for "more" in the sense of good luck, good fortune, long life, children, etc.
