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.
