100 Ways to Write Good Luck / Good Fortune
Chinese Ink Rubbing Wall Scroll

100 Good Luck / Good Fortune Symbols

Close up view of the artwork mounted to this silk brocade wall scroll

This is a unique wall scroll that features 100 different ways to write "fu". Those 100 "fu" characters are embedded inside a huge "fu" character.

This character means good luck or good fortune in Chinese, Japanese Kanji, and old Korean Hanja.

This one is a ink rubbing. Some people call this "stone rubbing" because it's often produced by placing a piece of paper on a flat carved stone (carved with character reliefs). This is better seen than explained, so here is a video:

I did not watch this one made, and I am not an expert in rubbings, so I cannot be sure of authenticity (whether it's a real rubbing or a reproduction of a rubbing). The artwork is priced accordingly (discounted).

When complete, the artwork was mounted to a silk brocade wall scroll by hand at our workshop in Beijing.

The artwork is not signed per se, in fact, the print block has some artist info, but such blocks far outlive their creators. Therefore the person who made this print by hand, is not necessarily the same person that carved the block of wood. Also, these pieces are created more for decor, than to be considered works of art, so it's common for the artist to remain anonymous.
