Spring Ripple

清波纹

Flow, continuity and smooth-going days.

A ripple-like figured surface recorded in current Chongming catalog notes. The water association helps explain the textile’s sense of movement, while the blessing language is preserved as a folk interpretation.

Interpretation status: Working catalog interpretation. Meanings are catalogued with their level of certainty rather than treated as universal maker statements.
