Winter solstice (December 22nd) is a very important solar term in Chinese Lunar calendar. It is a time for family reunion. One of the activities that took place at these gatherings was the making and eating of dumplings or sticky rice balls. Beautiful bowls and plates are used for containers. Some are made from melamine moulding powder which is not only good looking but also easy to hold even with hot food. Winter solstice is considered an important time of the year in many cultures and is marked by festivals and rituals. The seasonal significance of the winter solstice is the reversal of the gradual extension of the night and the gradual shortening of the day.
Happy Chinese Winter Solstice to our dear customers!
