Fuk Luk Sau is a very famous Chinese trinity of deities who represent happiness, prosperity, and longevity; the three important aspirations of mankind. They are usually represented together and are known to attract health, wealth and prosperity to those who keep them and to the environment where they are.
Representing happiness and harmony, Fuk deity carries a scroll and sometimes a child with him for good descendant luck. Luk deity holds a scepter of office called Ru Yi, or a gold ingot to symbolize prosperity, authority and wealth. Luk deity always stands in the center and ensures your career success and enhanced income luck. Sau deity is depicted as carrying a staff and a peach, also known as the fruit of immortality. Sometimes, the gourd containing the Elixir of life is tied on the staff. He symbolizes good health and longevity.
Jade or ‘yu’ in Chinese is also known as the "Stone of Heaven”. Jade is a desired stone prized for thousands of years in China for its purity, serenity, protective powers and healing qualities. It is considered the health, wealth and longevity stone used also for courage, wisdom, justice, mercy, emotional balance, stamina, love, fidelity, humility, generosity, peace and harmony. Associated with the heart chakra, Jade increases love. It is also said to stimulate creativity and mental agility, and attract good luck and enhance one’s health. It also has detoxifying effect on the body by stimulating the kidneys. Jade symbolizes renewal. It is considered a lucky stone and frequently worn as an amulet.
Silver is a popular metal used in crafting Feng Shui items because in terms of preciousness and metal energy, it is a close second to gold but cost much less. 925 Sterling silver is an alloy of silver containing 92.5% by weight of silver and 7.5% by weight of other metals, usually copper as pure silver is generally too soft for producing functional objects. In Feng Shui terms, metal is a symbol of organization and holds its form well. It is associated with both wealth and protection. Metal cures are often used to ward off evil influences.
Besides being an elegant accessory, the 925 Silver Jade Pendant with Fuk Luk Sau is a Feng Shui lucky charm with all the protection and blessings associated with silver, jade and the Fuk Luk Sau symbols. Wear it for peace of mind and prepare to welcome greater prosperity and improved luck into your life!
