The stamp depicts a wooden tray — known as a chuen-hop or Tray of Togetherness — filled with holiday sweets. This is the eighth of 12 stamps in the Postal Service’s Celebrating Lunar New Year series, which will continue through 2019.
The Lunar New Year, one of the most important holidays of the year for many Asian communities around the world, is celebrated primarily by people of Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Tibetan and Mongolian heritage.
