Product Description
Traditionally used in Chinese culture to give money at special occasions, the red color of these envelopes symbolizes good luck. They are given at the Lunar New Year by the married to the unmarried, who are usually children. There are traditions as to the amount in the envelope as well - such as it should end in an even number but not one with 4 in it, because the number 4 is considered unlucky by many Chinese. Red envelopes can also be used to pay those who render a service - such as a teacher or doctor.

At weddings, the newly married couple gives monetary gifts to their guests in red envelopes. These are expected to be generous, thus ensuring happiness and prosperity to the newlyweds.

These envelopes are designed for just such a wedding. Printed in gold embossed ink, they have a cute cartoon couple kissing on the front under a windblown "double happiness" symbol and what appear to be tiny wrapped candies. Though there is nothing printed on the back, the red paper they are made from has gold flecks in it and shimmers in the light.

This is a pack of 7 of these beautiful envelopes, ready to add beauty and a bit of fun to your paper crafting and collage / mixed media projects. Each envelope measures approximately 6 5/8" X 3 1/2" [16.8 cm X 8.7 cm] and is made from medium weight paper. The top of the envelope (short side) is open and has a flap.

You are purchasing a SET of 7 envelopes, to be shipped together in rigid mailing envelope to prevent folding or creasing during transit. Shipping and handling for this item will be $1.75 (or $.25 if combined with another heavier object).
