Hand-Painted Royal Doulton Halcyon Days Squirrel Monkey Holding a Peach Figurine Made in England

The symbolism of a monkey holding a peach is rooted in various cultural traditions, particularly in Chinese culture.Longevity and Immortality: The peach is often associated with immortality and longevity in Chinese mythology. It is believed to be the fruit of the gods, providing eternal life. Monkeys are also linked to playfulness and intelligence, so a monkey holding a peach can symbolize a wish for a long and joyful life.Prosperity and Good Fortune: In addition to longevity, peaches are also symbols of prosperity, health, and good fortune. The combination of a monkey and a peach can therefore represent a blessing for a prosperous and fortunate life.The Monkey King (Sun Wukong): In the classic Chinese novel "Journey to the West," the Monkey King, Sun Wukong, is known for stealing the peaches of immortality from the Heavenly Peach Garden. This story contributes to the symbolism of monkeys and peaches together.These cultural references make the figurine not only a beautiful piece of art but also a meaningful symbol of positive attributes and blessings.
