Lucky Peach

Lucky Peach takes its inspiration from Chinese symbols of longevity. Shou Lao, the Chinese god who serves as president of the heavenly administration, determines each person's lifespan. In honor of his hold on longevity, he is worshipped as part of birthday celebrations. You'll see him depicted as smiling and holding a peach, accompanied by a long-lived crane or tortoise. The Chinese symbols for longevity include the Shou, as well as a few more. When the Shou symbol is carved onto a peach, it represents a long marriage. I chose to combine the peach with one of those other longevity symbols to make my Lucky Peach. . . I think any way you look at it, longevity and a sweet peach have to be lucky :)

Lucky Peach 749 x 768 pixels (109 KB) 0 Comments Inspired by a Chinese longevity symbol, to which I inadvertantly added two extra curved lines at the bottom. I hope the lucky thoughts that inspired it make this okay.		Lucky Peach 1024 x 1012 pixels (151 KB) 0 Comments		Lucky Peach 1024 x 1009 pixels (158 KB) 0 Comments
Shou Token of Longevity 1024 x 980 pixels (242 KB) 0 Comments This is another Chinese symbol for longevity and immortality, the shou symbol. This symbol is raised and large enough to make it easy to trace the symbol with your finger.		Shou Token of Longevity 1024 x 987 pixels (181 KB) 0 Comments "Long Life" is written on the back.

Thanks for stopping by to visit with AngelinaBeadalina! I'm really just plain ol' Angie or Ang, but the catchy name does suit me in the sense that I'm a motormouth who loves to play with words almost as much as I love to play with glass! You can find me here at BeadArtists.org, in my Etsy shop, or in my daily blog. You can get links to those places at www.angelinabeadalina.com (click on it above). Please pardon the use of my "official" website as a traffic control signal at the moment-- at least, that's what it makes me think of when I look at it. . . lots of directions to other places where there are updates on a daily basis. Tech-stuff would not be one of those things that I love or that comes naturally to me ;) Well, enough rambling for now, come on in, look around. . . have fun exploring my glass experiments and ideas. Peace, Ang
