    This Brand NEW Fortune Stick Box Set is a reproduction of a classical style of Chinese ornaments of the 1800's.
    Chinese Fortune sticks have great Cultural/Religious in China, and are used in a similar fashion to a Western fortune teller. If you were facing a situation, something you couldn't decide or lacked insight and guidance, people would go the temple and pray to the Buddha and ask for help, then they would use the fortune sticks as a guide. You would pray, then shake the box, the first stick that dropped to the floor from the box would be the one the Buddha revealed , and would contain your answer.
    There are 60 sticks in the box. Along with the sticks, there is an Written English Guide to the sticks which explains what is the fortune associated to each stick.
    This beautiful piece is made of wood and faux leather, using old traditional Chinese techniques, the leather is wrapped around the wood and bound tightly so that the skin is smooth and perfectly formed to the piece.  Inside the case is lined with aged Chinese paper filled with characters,  adding to the authenticity and feel of the product.
    This classical technique was developed 1200-1500 years ago in the Tang Dynasty Era, and reproduced by us today!
    The lid and sides of the case are painted with beautiful and traditional Chinese paintings of Dragon and Phoenix. Each Case is individually painted, and are selected randomly (meaning you may receive a pictured style differing from the pictures)  In Chinese culture, gold paintings represent luck and happiness. The case has been treated to help preserve the paintings and the exterior.
    It embraces the artistry and craftsmanship of the finest traditional Chinese art.
