This is an open mailbox with the flag raised, indicating that mail has arrived. It's a traditional mailbox shape commonly seen in the United States.
A raised red flag signals that there's mail inside. While email is widely used these days, many people still use mailboxes for exchanging special letters.


This mailbox design originated in 19th-century America to facilitate efficient mail delivery in rural areas. The flag system was a convenient communication method for both mail carriers and residents.
In modern times, beyond its practical purpose, the mailbox has also become a romantic symbol. It frequently appears in Hollywood movies and dramas, often serving as a key prop in romantic comedies, especially during Valentine's Day or the Christmas season. Even in the age of social media, it continues to be cherished as a medium for conveying special sentiments.
