Worn by women, or in more cases, by babies on their birthdays, hat ornaments reached popularity in the Ming and Qing dynasties (1368-1911 AD). In addition to their decorative function, hat accessories are also endowed with people’s wishes for blessings for their children and themselves. This item, too, based on its name, embodies people’s longing for fortune, wealth, longevity and happiness.
