For a Grandparent
Two characters for the elder who has shaped a generation.
The right gift for a grandparent is the one they will keep. Two characters have been hung on the walls of Chinese grandparents’ homes for centuries — and remain the most meaningful choices today.
寿 (Shòu) — Longevity
The traditional Chinese gift for any elder. 寿 is the wish for long life — and in Chinese culture, also for vitality, dignity, and the kind of long life that stays good. The single most classical choice for a grandparent.
福 (Fú) — Blessing
The companion to 寿, hung side by side in countless Chinese homes for generations. 福 is the wish for everything good — health, family, peace — without singling any one out. A grandparent will recognize what they’re being given.
Each character is hand-brushed by Artist Lina Sun on rice paper.
