Introduction to greeting cards:

1, origin

Emperor Taizong greeted the ministers with greeting cards. Every Spring Festival and Spring Festival, from the head of state to ordinary people, he has the habit of sending greeting cards to relatives and friends. China's traditional culture attaches great importance to "ceremony", which was once the essence of China culture. Many contents in etiquette are expressed through forms, such as greeting cards.

2. Development

Greeting cards have been used in China for a long time. In ancient times, the upper-class literati exchanged greetings with famous cards. Hui Zhou, a poet of the Song Dynasty, said in Qingbo magazine: "During the Song Dynasty, servants were often used to stab people in the name."

After the Tang and Song Dynasties, the name and function of greeting cards were improved, called "door shape" or "flying post". In the Ming and Qing dynasties, it was also called "red list" and "New Year's post". Listen to the name and you will know that the function is becoming more and more secular, and the literati is gradually drifting away.

During the Ming and Qing dynasties, there was a set of etiquette for giving cards and stickers. According to the regulations, servants can't give greeting cards in person, so they invented the worship box, that is, the box held by servants when they meet is rectangular, just big enough to hold greeting cards and stickers. After seeing the master, the servant can't hold the card or sticker directly, but must open the worship box and let the master take it out.

Modern greeting cards originated from the printing of Christmas cards, and then developed continuously, and various holiday greeting cards appeared. Among them, China Post's self-created greeting cards, plant greeting cards and embroidered greeting cards have injected new contents into traditional greeting cards.
