| Description |
Royal Family Treasury Exhibition of Qing Dynasty Gold and Silver Implements From the Imperial Palace The "Ruyi" is an implement which represents goodness and fortune. It was made from gold, jade, bamboo and bone. The shape of the ruyi is in the form of a cloud and curve. It is used for pointing (indicating) or appreciation (appearances). It originated from the back-scratcher... Yang Yang Nao (itchy, itchy scratch）。 Therefore, everything is good and everything is fluent (no obstacles) as the time flies it becomes something to be appreciated. In the royal Qing Dynasty, the "ruyi" was given to the governor as a gift from the emperor and empress. |
