The lingzhi fungus is traditionally regarded as an omen of stable society and thriving business. Peaches are gifts for birthday congratulations. The peach trees are auspicious symbols of longevity. Together, they form a Chinese character for “longevity” (shou). Such motif is widely used on polychrome porcelain wares dating to the Jiajing reign, which is closely associated with his Daoist belief.
