For a Friend
Three characters for the friend whose home, year, or new chapter you want to bless.
A character on rice paper is the Chinese way of giving a gift that doesn’t presume too much intimacy — and yet means more than a bottle of wine. These three are the safest, warmest picks for a friendship that still has plenty of road ahead of it.
福 (Fú) — Blessing
The universal first choice. 福 is the all-purpose Chinese blessing — health, comfort, family, peace — the one character that fits any occasion and any home.
安 (Ān) — Peace
For the friend who needs the wall to feel a little calmer. 安 is the wish for a peaceful home, peaceful days, and the comfort of safe rest.
瑞 (Ruì) — Auspicious
For a friend stepping into something new — a year, a job, a chapter. 瑞 is the soft conviction that what comes next carries good things ahead.
Each character is hand-brushed by Artist Lina Sun on rice paper.
