Let's travel down memory lane with each pair of our special designs!
Dragon Pheonix Happiness Socks
"Diamond Restaurant" was a famous Chinese restaurant for families to enjoy morning tea, dimsum, and hosting banquet. The "Big Banquet Hall" (a.k.a. 龍鳳大禮堂) had held many birthday banquets, weddings, and full moon parties that captures many unforgettable memories for the Hong Kong people. Our "Dragon Pheonix Happiness Socks" took this concept and injected a our Playful touch to the dragon and pheonix!
Fu Lu Shou Socks
When it comes to birthday celebrations, we always refer the birthday boy as the "壽星公". Hence, we feature 3 traditional elements into this design with "福祿壽" (the good fortune, great rewards and longevity). Can you find these 3 elements within our socks?
Golden Bowl Abalone
In the traditional Chinese banquet, it would always include luxurious ingredients like "鲍参翅肚" (abalone, sea cucumber, shark fins and fish belly). To make it more special, the restaurant would serve shark fins within a golden bowl. It is a special presentation of food that makes the experience a unique one.
