Fu Lu Gourd Auspicious Charm

Everyone's idea of happiness takes a different form. In Taiwanese folk culture, the gourd shares a homophone with "fu lu" (fortune and prosperity), thus carrying auspicious connotations of inviting blessings and good luck. A common saying in the Taiwanese countryside goes, "A single gourd in the house brings wealth" (Min Nan dialect pronunciation), meaning that placing a gourd at home will lead to fortune and riches. Adorned with auspicious patterns and complemented by exquisite leather and hardware, this piece becomes a stylish accessory steeped in culture, a personal good luck charm. {Product Specifications} • Product Name: Fu Lu Gourd Auspicious Charm • Size: Height 4.5~6.5cm • Colors: Oriental Red, Blue & White Porcelain. • Craftsmanship: Hand-painted, handmade, with a protective topcoat. • Material: Natural Gourd (a type of woody plant).
