There are two gemstones called jade, and this pendant features both of them. The black jade carving, depicting a Chinese Shòu symbol, is in nephrite jade, and the green jade bead on top is jadeite jade.
Shòu (壽) is the Chinese character for longevity.
In traditional Chinese thought, three of the most cherished blessings in life are happiness (fú 福), prosperity or professional success (lù 祿), and longevity (shòu 壽). These blessings are often symbolized by the "Three Star Gods"—Fú, Lù, and Shòu—depicted as iconic male figures embodying these ideals.
