Lotus & Butterfly Nephrite Jade Pendant

A small story of transformation, carved in natural nephrite jade. A butterfly rests above a lotus seedpod, with tiny tadpoles completing the design. Warm brown skin is incorporated into the butterfly’s wings, giving the pale jade a distinctive contrast.

For Lansattic, the butterfly speaks of meeting life’s challenges and gradually finding a new form of beauty. The lotus carries a wish to remain true to oneself through difficult surroundings—rising from the mud without losing its purity.

In the symbolism chosen for this piece, the many-seeded lotus expresses wishes for a flourishing family and blessings across generations. The tadpoles carry the auspicious wish of Wu Zi Deng Ke: success and achievement for the next generation. These meanings are offered as cultural wishes and personal reminders.
