Our 2024 limited edition Chinese New Year enamel pins are now available for pre-order! The pins are inspired by my charmingly grumpy cat, Taro. ✨
Pin #1: Peony "Fu" (福) Bag
The Chinese character " 福" (pronounced "fu" in Mandarin) holds great cultural significance and is often associated with blessings, happiness, and good fortune. This adorable enamel pin features Taro nestled in a vibrant red fortune bag adorned with peony patterns. A symbol of prosperity and good luck, this pin radiates positive energy and festive vibes!
Pin #2: Red Pockets
In Chinese culture, red envelopes, known as "hong bao" (红包) in Mandarin, are traditional and symbolic gifts exchanged during special occasions, most commonly during the Lunar New Year. These envelopes, typically red, are believed to bring good luck, prosperity, and positive energy. Taro is fully embracing the Chinese New Year in style and he might even share the joy by distributing those auspicious red envelopes, spreading luck and happiness to everyone around.
