About Peachwood:
In China, it's said the peach offers symbolic and magical value, an ancient symbol of fertility and a modern omen. The very name, "tao fu," means omen and it means wood. A peach signifies luck, abundance and protection; in pictures, embroideries, and calendars, it speaks to living long. An elderly Buddha is often seen holding one and a peach-wood staff. The wood is an amulet, a peach pit worn around the neck to drive off demons.
