Crafted from fine-grain jadeite (“glutinous type”), this pendant features a smooth, translucent texture and natural luster that highlights the craftsmanship of jade carving. In folk culture, the horse is also regarded as a symbol of wealth and prosperity. In Chinese idioms, there are many auspicious expressions related to horses, as the horse itself embodies vitality, strength, and an ever-flowing spirit. It is believed to bring fortune to its wearer, helping one’s career and life path move forward with greater ease and success.In Chinese culture, the phrase “马上成功” (mǎ shàng chéng gōng) carries a double meaning. The word “马” means horse, and “马上” can mean “on a horse” but also “right away” or “immediately.” When combined with “成功” (success), the phrase symbolizes “achieving success instantly.”

Thus, the jade horse carving not only represents strength and vitality but also conveys the auspicious wish for quick victories, immediate progress, and swift achievement of goals.

What Is the Role of Placing a Horse on Your Office Desk?

In Feng Shui, the horse symbolizes success, progress, and upward momentum. The phrase “ma dao cheng gong” (literally “success comes with the arrival of the horse”) reflects its strong association with achievement and good fortune. If you want to stand out at work and boost your performance, placing a decorative horse—especially one depicted in full gallop—on your office desk is believed to attract positive energy and career opportunities.

For those who travel frequently on business, horse figurines or ornaments are considered especially auspicious, offering protection and smooth journeys.

Best Placement by Zodiac Sign and Material

According to Feng Shui principles, the ideal direction and material of the horse decoration vary based on your Chinese zodiac sign:

• Tiger, Horse, Dog → Place a wooden horse in the southwest direction.

• Monkey, Rat, Dragon → Place a metal horse in the northeast direction.

• Snake, Rooster, Ox → Place a jade horse in the northwest direction.

• Pig, Rabbit, Goat → Place a crystal horse in the southeast direction.

By aligning the horse’s material and placement with your zodiac sign, you can enhance its effect, bringing not only good luck but also smoother progress in your career and personal life.

Did You Know? Jadeite “Bean Type” Can Be Divided into 5 Varieties

There is a saying in the jade industry: “Ten jades, nine beans”, which means that bean type jadeite makes up the majority of all jadeite. The name is very descriptive—most bean type jadeite appears in short, column-like crystals, resembling rows of small beans embedded in the stone.Bean type jadeite is one of the most common varieties on the market. It comes in many forms and qualities. But did you know that within this category, there are actually five main subtypes?

1. Cat Bean Type 

This variety is known for its extremely coarse texture. It usually contains green but is mixed with many other colors, such as gray, black, or brown. Considered a lower-grade jadeite, it is often found in antique markets and commonly carved into motifs like Pixiu or peace lock pendants.

2. Oil Bean Type 

Named after the oily greenish tone of its base color, this jadeite has a coarse structure, sometimes with patchy or residual patterns. Although it doesn’t reach high quality standards, it is still a common and affordable choice in the bean type family.

3. Fine Bean Type 

This is the most valuable among bean types. Fine bean jadeite can range widely in price—from just a few hundred yuan to over ten thousand—depending on its transparency and color. It usually has a slightly translucent quality, good luster, and compact, uniform structure, making it easy to distinguish from lower-grade bean jadeite. A highly recommended choice for collectors.

4. Common Bean Type 

Often seen in wholesale markets, this jadeite features a bean-green color with a coarse texture and little to no transparency. Sometimes, rusty-colored patches or spots appear. Its value varies depending on color intensity, but overall it belongs to the mid-to-low grade category. Many tourists end up purchasing this type of jadeite during travels.

5. Sweet Bean Type 

Also called “sugar bean type”, this variety has a finer structure compared to other bean types. Its color is a uniform light green, giving a fresh and pleasing appearance. Because of its attractive look and brightness, sweet bean jadeite is considered one of the higher-grade categories within bean type jadeite.
