NOTE: The symbolic mark of the artemisia leaf is listed as No. 3354 and 3355 in the 2013 edition "New and Revised Handbook of Marks on Chinese Ceramics" by Gerald Davison. According to this source, the artemisia leaf is a symbol of healing and health, as well as one of the Daoist "Eight Precious Objects."
