Does the elephant's design have any meaning in the decorations?

The image of an elephant means good luck or happiness. If the elephant is with the bottle, it means that there is an elephant living in peace.

For thousands of years, people have formed an indissoluble bond with elephants. People like elephants and worship them. In China's traditional culture, the word "Xiang" is homophonic with the word "Xiang", so the image is endowed with more auspicious meanings, such as treating the image as a vase (flat) as "peaceful image"; Carrying an elephant and inserting a halberd (auspicious) vase is "safe and auspicious"; It is "good luck" for a child to ride an elephant.

The ancients said: "Peace is like an elephant", which means "good luck" and "going out into the phase". Dai people have always regarded elephants as a symbol of good luck and strength. Because Xishuangbanna, Yunnan Province is a paradise for elephants, local people like elephants very much. Using elephants as mascots at home means peace, auspiciousness and wealth.
