Catalogue Essay
Being upright and strong, also surviving throughout extreme weathers, bamboo has a gracious connotation in China. The Chinese word for bamboo has the same pronunciation as “wish” or “congratulate” (zhu), a symbol of “bringing protection and peace” (zhu-bao-ping-an). Bamboo also has a meaning, for its contour, of growing up and high (jie-jie-gao-sheng) in career. The present jadeite ‘bamboo’ pendant is an example of this traditional auspicious charm.
