Footnotes
清 白玉飾 一組四件
The jade bamboo pendant with segmented nodes symbolises the auspicious wish for 'every step bringing in more success' (節節高升 jiejie gaosheng). See a white jade bamboo paperweight of similar shape, Qing dynasty, in the Qing Court Collection, in the Palace Museum, Beijing, illustrated in The Complete Collection of Treasures of the Palace Museum: Small Refined Articles of the Study (故宮博物院藏文物珍品大系：文玩), Shanghai, 2009, pl.144, p.162.
Because the Chinese word for water chestnut (菱 ling) is a homophone for cleverness or quick wit (ling 伶 such as in lingli 伶俐), it was traditionally believed that children who eat water chestnut during the Mid-Autumn Festival or wear ornaments in the shape of water chestnuts will be blessed with intelligence and quick wit. Compare with a related white jade water chestnut pendant, Qing dynasty, in the Qing Court Collection, in the Palace Museum, Taipei (acc.no.故玉000169N000000000).
See a related white jade bamboo pendant, Qing dynasty, which was sold at Sotheby's London, 13 May 2015, lot 324.
