Number balloons in Beijing: foil figures, fountains and how long they float
Number balloons in Beijing come in two foil finishes, silver and gold, and a foil balloon holds helium for several days, usually three to five. An untreated latex balloon lasts about half a day, so a foil number outlasts the party itself. The only real choice is whether the number stands alone or comes with a fountain of balloons around it.
A single foil number or a number with a fountain
The Foil Ball Silver Number and the Foil Balloon Gold Number are single figures, and the only difference between them is colour: pick whichever suits the card or the outfit of the day. Number with Balloon Fountains sets the same kind of figure inside a cluster of smaller balloons, which reads as fuller in a photo without changing what the number itself is made of. Either way, the number simply states an age or an anniversary, and the grid photo shows the tone and arrangement before you order.
A number balloon goes into the same basket as a bouquet to go with it, along with any other gifts to go with bouquets you fancy. The card message is free either way, and you can sign it or leave it anonymous. Payment is by Visa or Mastercard, and the total in the basket is final, nothing extra goes to the courier. A photo of the bouquet is sent before the courier sets off, and most orders are handed over the same day they're placed; the exact slot shows in the item card, with the full picture on the delivery page.
