The 'Three Abundances', sanduo, represent an abundance of blessings, longevity and sons. The bats suspending endless knots represent endless blessings because the name of the knot panchang, and the word for bat, fu, forms the rebus changfu, which literally means endless blessings.  Scattered throughout the decoration are also wan symbols, which represent eternity and chimes which represent celebration.

The Shende Tang hall mark on the base refers to the residence of the Daoguang Emperor in the Yuanming Yuan summer palace in the outskirts of the capital, where it was located on the western side of the Jiuzhou Qingyan (Palace of Peace in the Nine Regions).  The Shende Tang was completed in 1831, thus making Daoguang pieces with this mark attributable to the two decades between 1831 and 1850.
