The bottom of the collection is engraved with six Chinese characters: the year of Daming Xuande. In addition to the Eight Immortals, Longevity Turtle also carries four small turtles, which are distributed on the left and right sides of the head, tail and foreleg of Longevity Turtle in different shapes. The tortoise shell bulge is decorated with shallow vortex patterns and geometric patterns, which are carefully carved.
This formed a lively scene in which the mother turtle carried it on her back, and the four little turtles supported it from front to back and from left to right, congratulating the tortoise Qi Xin on his birthday and working together to protect the crossing. Both sides of the turtle cover are engraved with the words "longevity" and "longevity" respectively, symbolizing the longevity of the Eight Immortals and the whole family. Among many auspicious things, the turtle is an authoritative symbol of enduring humiliation and longevity.
The decorations for celebrating the birthday of the Eight Immortals crossing the sea are made of jade powder and other raw materials. Jade is bright and moist, and the whole jade is emerald green. The decoration is based on auspicious tortoise. The giant tortoise stands on all fours and its head seems to be moving forward. The Eight Immortals carved beautifully on the back of the giant turtle, the immortals sat around the flat peach, and He Xiangu bowed down.
To the right front, holding the pipa, and playing the Han Xiangzi facing the right rear; Cao Guojiu returned with a jade plate in his right hand; Lv Dongbin hung a sword on his lower back and looked at the left; Han Zhong faces left, holding a banana fan in his right hand and a gourd with spikes in his left hand, just like a potbellied Maitreya Buddha.
Kneel and lie down, ride a donkey, hold a hollow Dan furnace in your right hand, face the left front, and dance with the wind on your cloak; Li Tie strange right hand holding iron crutches, bowed their heads and look forward; Blue Cai He holding blue flowers, looking down at the back, left and front.
The Eight Immortals depict both gods and shapes, and the characters are vivid and lifelike. The left and right sides of the turtle are engraved with the word longevity, which is magnificent and shows the master's craftsmanship. The bottom is engraved with the words "Ming Xuande years". This ornament has the style of Ming and Qing jade.
The overall shape of the ornaments is peculiar and unique, which means prolonging life. It's really a masterpiece and has a high collection value.
