AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The symbolism of the Cicada stems from the insect’s natural life cycle, in which it regenerates and emerges from old skin as if it were a new insect. According to Feng Shui, cicadas are a powerful symbol of longevity and everlasting happiness in the living world. This is partly due to the fact that they are among the longest-living insects.

They have been used through the ages as a symbol of status, for spiritual blessing and to help accumulate wealth. Age of this item is to be determined.
