Chinese traditional culture divides the year into 24 solar terms, among which the Beginning of Summer signals the onset of the summer season. Dragon Boat Festival, a significant holiday for the Chinese during early summer, is celebrated accordingly.

Weaving egg pouch around the time of the Beginning of Summer and the Dragon Boat Festival has been a widespread folk custom in the vast region of Jiangnan. Hanging these egg pouches around children's necks during the festivities symbolizes wishes for health and safety. Designed in the shape of a golden fish, this particular egg pouch incorporates beads, gold threads, sequins, and other embellishments, making it not only vivid and aesthetically pleasing but also imbued with auspicious meanings.
