What does this mean?

Thank you for submitting your item for appraisal. This appears to be a 21st century chinese stone carving in the shape of a ship, bearing the brand name 九龍船. These carvings are made of so the called Xinyi "jade", which is not jade but a type of much softer serptentine. 信宜Xinyi County, Guangdong Province ist the area where these ships are produced today. The low estimate is a current auction result, the high estimate is the current price when ordered in China today. "Asking prices" in western countries can be higher and vary.

Hi Joelyn,
we are here to help, but unfortunately it is what it is, the certificate is wrong. Try to return it to the seller.
