The Sixth Moon in the Chinese Calendar is known as the "Lotus Moon", with the birthday of

the flower celebrated on the 24th as part of a Buddhist tradition.  The Lotus is a symbol of

fortune, purity, beauty and the wisdom of compassion gained through perseverence; as it grows in

muddy waters, rising through the murk, and blooming unto the Sun to achieve enlightenment.

The Lotus Moondrops are hand-carved

out of three types of wood and colors to choose from:   

Black Areng Wood, Brown Sabo Wood, or Creme Crocodile Wood

Embellished with a yellow brass Lotus that wraps around the bottom,

and brass diamond shapes down the sides.

Available in one size only.
