What is the special meaning of the bat pattern carved on porcelain?

Comparing the bat pattern with other patterns, we can find that this pattern shows the unique characteristics of China. Bat patterns have been used in China for a long time. But it was not until the Ming and Qing Dynasties that this mosquito sample was widely used. And at that time, these craftsmen widely used bat patterns on porcelain. Think of the bat pattern as a blessing pattern. Among them, there are three most representative ones. 1 There are five bats. This situation symbolizes Five Blessingg. When these ancient craftsmen were making porcelain, they usually painted these five bats in the field or indoors. For example, the Palace Museum has several pieces of porcelain, which also reflect the patterns of these five bats. These patterns are used to express the craftsman's blessing to these porcelain users, and these patterns also represent five blessings. The second is a group of bats. This pattern represents how blessed it is. In the process of making, craftsmen will draw many bats on the outer wall of the objects, and these bats have no fixed arrangement pattern. These patterns are engraved on some porcelain collected by Beijing Art Museum. In addition, these families will draw many bats and clouds on porcelain, representing the meaning of being blessed and staying in heaven. Because the patterns of these clouds are artistic and symbolize the sky. The third is the peach bat pattern. Stripes are also a more auspicious pattern. Craftsmen often combine peach trees, decorative patterns and other patterns when drawing these patterns. Combined with peach trees, it shows the meaning of Xianzhi's birthday. Peach trees also symbolized a certain longevity in ancient times, so these painters combined bat patterns with peach trees in the process of drawing these styles to express their blessings to the world. It can be seen that no matter what kind of pattern, bat pattern is a very auspicious and beautiful style. It also expressed the good wishes of ancient craftsmen to the world.
