red eggs
Colored celebration spheres
Red eggs are hard-boiled eggs dyed red, traditionally served at celebrations in Chinese culture, especially to mark a baby's one-month birthday.
The red color symbolizes good luck, happiness, and new life.
They may be distributed to friends and family as an announcement of birth: We're giving out red eggs for the baby.
