Introduction:The Returnee Tourist Party of Meat Merchants' Association from Hong Kong and Kowloon presented this item as a gift on October 31, 1960.

The ivory image of Avalokitesvara was placed in a light green carton decorated with patterns, and the box has a top transparent plastic sheet to allow slightly see through. The image of Avalokitesvara, raised on a black wood base in openwork, holds branches hanging seven peaches over the shoulder in her right hand and four peaches with stems drooping naturally in her left hand, sending a message of congratulating President Chiang's 74th birthday anniversary. The ivory base is inscribed with a message of birthday congratulations "To bring long life and blessings to people," a dedication "In celebration of the 70th birthday anniversary of President Chiang," and on the lower part, "The Returnee Tourist Party of Meat Merchants' Association from Hong Kong and Kowloon."
