The beauty of this Chinese plum blossom umbrella will make you see life through rose-tinted glasses!
This magnificent Chinese Umbrella is decorated with delicate Plum Blossoms. Indeed, did you know that the plum blossom was one of the three national flowers of China, with the peony and the Lotus? With its five petals, it represents the five peoples of China: the Manchus, the Mohammedans, the Hans, the Tibetans, and the Mongols. But in addition to this historical particularity, the plum blossom also has a strong symbolism in China. Indeed, this flower is very poetic, because it is the first to bloom in Chinese landscapes, while winter is still here, and the snow cover still covers the mountains... Seeing the plum tree bud, then bloom, is therefore good news for the Chinese, who see it as the announcement of the arrival of sunny days. In addition, the Chinese often associate the hooked shape of its branches with the cracks in the ice. For all these reasons, the plum tree in bloom is one of the favorite trees of Chinese painters, and it is found in many ancient, traditional, or modern paintings.
