About Alabear Caixa de Agasallo

Alabear é unha caixa de agasallo deseñada para o Ano Novo Chinés do Ano do Boi. O nome procede do dialecto de Ningbo, no que ala significa noso, polo que Alabear significa o noso pequeno oso. Unha mascota de oso é o elemento principal do deseño, combinada con imaxes do boi e do Deus da Riqueza. A caixa mide 30 por 30 por 22 centímetros e contén sobres vermellos, dísticos de primavera e unha moeda conmemorativa. A caixa está feita de papel especial, impresa en CMYK cunha cor directa vermella, e rematada con estampación en bronce e gofrado.
