carved in high relief to the top with a butterfly on a small flower, borne on curled tendrils issuing gourds and large leaves, the stone with russet highlights

This plaque is carved with a highly auspicious motif, as the gourd plant, which has long stems and carry fruits with many seeds, represents the wish for many descendants. When depicted with butterflies, they express the wish guadie mianmian (‘May there be ceaseless generations of sons and grandsons’).
