Chinese New Year Red Packets with Golden Wealth Deity (4pcs)

These bright red packets are embellished with a golden foil sticker embossed with the image of an adorable Chinese Wealth God holding a gold ingot. Made of high quality thick velvety paper and slightly fragranced.

A Red Packet or "Hong Bao" in Chinese or in modern days, any bright auspicious colored packet such as gold or yellow is simply an envelope with money or jewelries in it and given during special Chinese special occasions such as Chinese New Year, weddings and birthdays as gift, wishing them good prosperity luck, happy marriage or longevity, depending on the occasion. These packets are often decorated with appropriate lucky symbols suitable for different wishes.

For Chinese, the amount of money they put in must be a round figure (never put in odd numbers) and usually ends with 8 e.g. $68, $88, $128 etc as this number sounds like good fortune. However, the number 4 is avoided as it sounds similar to "death" and is therefore inauspicious and frowned upon.
