【ADAM Merchandise】Hong Kong scenery greeting envelopes by Alvin Li
Sincere blessings start with a simple envelope! Alvin Li, our artist with disability, used a palette of rich colours and briskly brushstrokes to depict Hong Kong scenery and create a set of four greeting envelopes. Hanging wishes on the wishing tree in Lam Tsuen, overlooking the Victoria Harbour from the top of the Victoria Peak, the bustling city, building homes with love, all of these featured fond memories are uniquely Hong Kong. Spread warmth and love whenever possible, whether it is a birthday, shop opening, or weddings, to your loved ones through this stunning set of greeting envelopes
