2-6Walnut (brass)

The ancients used the homophony of "walnut" as "disaster escape" to pray for good fortune and good fortune in times of adversity. From the emperor to the common people, they always want peace and happiness. When encountering unexpected events, they even want to turn disaster into good fortune. Therefore, "fleeing disaster" and walnuts have formed an indissoluble bond. It is said that Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty gave Di Renjie a pair of walnuts, hoping that he would escape disasters and live a safe life. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, playing with walnuts reached its peak. From emperors, generals, talents and beauties to officials and ordinary people, they were all happy and proud to have a pair of outstanding walnuts.
