  • Description
Pewter is an alloy consisting of mostly tin and it is the fourth most precious metal.
It also has very small amounts of antimony and copper which is added
mainly for strength and/or colour.

A beautiful pewter plate embellished with 3D motifs featuring Fu character. The character for good fortune fu is sculpted as a three-dimensional brush stroke against a repeating pattern of the ancient character for ‘ten thousand’ wan, signifying a long life. Bats, homonymous with fu, surround the display piece’s central motif.

Fu Lu Shou 福禄寿, or the Sanxing (三星 Three Stars), are gods of the three celestial bodies Jupiter, Mizar and Canopus, and the three characteristics of good fortune (Fu),
status (Lu) and longevity (Shou) in Chinese folk beliefs. The term ‘fu lu shou’,
and the display of the three figures, is common in Chinese society
to indicate and attract these three attributes of a desirable life.
A satin finish surface with simple and smooth line patterns design on this plate, 
giving it a balanced appearance. An ideal gift for visitors to Malaysia.
