History

Since the beginning of time, the number eight has captivated the imagination and fuelled the superstition of mankind. Almost everywhere the number eight promises good fortune. Especially in China the number eight 8 plays a fundamental role because the word for “eight” is pronounced “fa” – the word “ba” on the other hand, which in phonetic terms is articulated in almost exactly the same way, means more or less “imminent wealth”.
