Starting from top right going clockwise is the fish – representing abundant food, then is the Pomegranate – for prosperity of descendants, then the peach – for perpetual youth and longevity, next is the fan – everlasting happiness, the flower is for glamour or vitality in one’s life, the butterfly – a messenger from heaven, and last is the leaf – a wish you will always have cloths.
