Inspired by the colorful cardboard fruit boxes found in Chinatown, this trinket box features the popular Chinese New Year phrase “大吉大利” (Dai Gut Dai Lay)—a wish for good luck and good fortune. The phrase doubles as a playful pun tied to mandarin oranges, long a symbol of good luck in Chinese culture.

Christina Fung (aka cafcaf) is happiest when creating, and working with clay has become her most fulfilling creative outlet. Her cute, colorful, and playful ceramic creations are handcrafted with care, and designed to bring a little brightness to your day!
