Border quilt design help

I have finished a quilt for some great friends in China and am not sure what to put on the border. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I like it as is. It's beautiful. I made one similar to it several years ago for my DD.

Whoops, misread the question. Are you going to machine or hand quilt? Maybe some Chinese characters that mean happiness or good luck (something like that).

I must be missing something . It looks like you have the borders on one a solid ( tone) and what looks like a metalic border.
Opps I must have miss read as well. Maybe go with fans in the border.

Oh I almost forgot to tell you .. I love your quilt!
