What is this symbol ?

Symbol


My wife received a bracelet with this symbol on it. This was my brother?s wife?s bracelet. She died of cancer a few years ago. My wife would like to know what this stands for. If anyone can tell me I would greatly appreciate it.

Looks like a clown drawn by a first grader. Do you know what language it is?

 

[Syringer]

Hmm, was she Chinese?

 

[TheITguy]

No she was not. Her father is really into Karate he teaches it and he probably gave it to her

I'm pretty sure ( 90%) that the char you have shown is chinese.

If you're an IT guy, why don't you know how to resize images? Seriously, there's no need for it to be that big.

Weird, in Japanese we read it as "fuku". It means the same thing, wealth/fortune/riches.

 

[JoeFahey]

It means "riches"

 

[Dacalo]

It's a Chinese character.
