Gentle and kind, the goat has long been cherished in China as a creature of good fortune. The ancient dictionary 说文 records it simply: 羊，祥也, the goat means auspicious. And because 羊 sounds like 阳 (sunlight), three goats together became 三阳开泰, a blessing for a bright new year and the renewal of all things.
Inspired by Palace Museum Heritage Design and a Qianlong-era embroidered screen of Three Goats Bringing Prosperity, this mug brings the blessing to your daily cup. Little goats play among fireworks and snowflakes on a rich red glaze, while a snow cloud lid crowned with a tiny goat captures the spirit of 吉羊踏云来，瑞雪覆红墙: a lucky goat arrives on the clouds as auspicious snow covers the red palace walls.
