Muut tiedot
These ruyi sceptres can be traced back over 1,000 years to ancient Chinese Buddhism when deities were often depicted holding simple back scratchers.
‘Ruyi’ literally means 'as you wish' and was a token of good fortune.
Over the centuries these became stylised good luck charms and Emperor Qianlong officially called upon courtiers to present them on Imperial birthdays and at New Year.
