|

||||||||||||||||||||
Beschreibung: A basket with fresh mandarins, used as a holiday Christmas decoration. Those little exotic orange citrus fruits, often called mandarins or tangerines, are only considered as a Christmas fruit because of its ripeness season. The clementines (or oranges) in the Christmas stockings hanging near the fire, are said to be a symbol of the Saint's generosity, an affordable sweet gift which brings a sunny mood. Oranges and tangerines are common Chinese New Year gifts because they're believed to bring good luck and happiness. The Chinese words for 'orange' and 'tangerine' closely resemble the words for 'luck' and 'wealth'. The gold color of these fruits also symbolizes prosperity. |
