Good fortune beckons as we usher in the Chinese New Year, a time-honored tradition that calls for welcoming prosperity into our lives. The revered symbol Fu is an emblem of good luck, and it's customary to adorn homes with this auspicious character to ensure a fortunate start to the new year. Abundant wealth is represented by fish, which embody the phrase 年年有余, or "prospering year after year." In Mandarin, yu, the word for fish, also conveys the idea of plenty and abundance. Meanwhile, the serene lotus flower embodies tranquility and longevity, its peaceful nature a testament to its symbolic significance. When combined, these three symbols create the well-wishing phrase 福禄寿禧！ - a heartfelt expression conveying good luck, career advancement, longevity, and happiness. This beautifully designed lantern is perfectly suited for an LED tealight and can be easily suspended from any fixture using a length of string. By displaying this lantern in your home, you'll be inviting good fortune, career success, longevity, and happiness into your life for years to come. As we bid farewell to the old year and welcome the new one, let's raise our voices in celebration: Gong Xi Fa Cai!
