Emperor Qianlong’s Imperial Calligraphy “Fu”（福） Fridge Magnet

Every year on New Year’s Day, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty would personally inscribe the character “福” (Blessing) as an auspicious ritual.

Among them, the “Fu” character written by Emperor Qianlong, who ushered in an era of unprecedented prosperity, was especially bold and full of confidence. Known as the “Perfect Elder” (Shi Quan Lao Ren), Qianlong was a man blessed with both literary and military achievements, he compiled the monumental Siku Quanshu (Complete Library of the Four Treasuries), expanded the empire’s territory, maintained a flourishing treasury, and received envoys from across the world.

He was, without a doubt, a man blessed with fortune throughout his life.
