“Tứ Bình” Mooncake Packaging

Vietnamese Tứ Bình (Four-Panel) Paintings are a traditional form of folk art that reflect the rich cultural heritage of Vietnam. Each set typically consists of four paintings symbolizing the four seasons—spring, summer, autumn, and winter—or four types of flowers and plants that represent vitality and noble human virtues. The colors used are usually bright and harmonious, with graceful and delicate lines. Common imagery includes flowers, birds, and everyday life scenes, highlighting the deep connection between nature and Vietnamese people. These paintings are not only decorative art pieces but also carry spiritual meanings, believed to bring luck, prosperity, and peace to the household.

In this design, four symbolic animals and flowers represent the four seasons:

Spring: Crane & Peony

Summer: Carp & Lotus

Autumn: Deer & Chrysanthemum

Winter: Dragon & Bamboo

Vietnamese Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as Tết Trung Thu, is a traditional celebration held on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month. It is a joyful occasion deeply rooted in the values of reunion and childhood delight. During this time, villages and cities are filled with vibrant lanterns of all shapes and colors—star-shaped, carp-shaped, and jade rabbit-shaped. Children eagerly participate in lantern processions, lion dances, and festive feasts under the full moon, enjoying mooncakes and seasonal fruits. More than just a children’s holiday, Mid-Autumn Festival is a cherished time for families to gather, share warm moments, and strengthen their bonds. The image of the full moon also symbolizes reunion and expresses the hope for a happy, peaceful life.
