Fortune | $218
Embracing a gold ingot adorned with a beautiful Peony flower – symbolic of riches and honour -- this little rabbit is quick to safeguard wealth and keep it close. An auspicious sign of prosperity, a lively pair of fish in front also adds significance of abundance, as the Chinese character for fish – 鱼(yu) sounds similar to 余(yu) which means ‘in excess’.
Grace | $438
All poised atop an official’s hat – an ancient symbol of status and power – the unruffled rabbit is raring to leap towards a brighter future, true to the Chinese saying 前程锦绣 (qian cheng jin xiu) engraved on the jade pin in the hat. This lucky figurine makes a perfect gift to wish a swift rise in any career or a smooth journey in a business venture.
Charmed | $ 738
