Grapes in Chinese are called putao, the syllable tao, being a homophone for the word 'peach' which is a symbol of longevity. Squirrels are called songshu, the syllable song being the name for 'pine', which also represents longevity. In addition, the spreading vines with numerous fruit and seeds of the grape, also represent the flourishing and continuation of the family line. The finely painted motif on this vase therefore carries that hope that one will have a long life and that the family line will flourish and grow with lots of progeny.
