Botany

The shawl features a warm earthy rouge-brown tone, evoking the richness of "red earth" (赤土)—a subtle nod to the grounding, nourishing element of earth in the Five Elements philosophy (五行). This color symbolizes stability and harmony, complementing the dignified yet soft presence of the floral motifs.

Embroidered or printed with delicate blossoms, the design channels the classical beauty found in traditions.

Upon closer inspection of the shawl's pattern, the floral motifs appear to predominantly feature Moutan peonies (牡丹)—characterized by their large, multi-petaled blossoms in shades of dusty pink, warm rose, and soft yellow. There are smaller secondary flowers resembling cherry blossoms (樱花) or camellias (山茶花) interwoven among the peonies, both of which are traditional symbols in Chinese culture. Cherry blossoms often symbolize the arrival of spring and fleeting beauty. Camellias are associated with admiration and long-lasting devotion.
