◈ Piece Name: "[Golden Era]" ◈
Individual ID: #[T038] — Only one in existence.
❖ ARTWORK DESCRIPTION
This artistic masterpiece features a fresh emerald-green palette, meticulously crafted using the traditional Xipi Daqi lacquer technique over 10-13 weeks of dedicated handwork. The bright green natural lacquer gleams like jade—warm and brimming with vitality; golden speckles shimmer like scattered sunlight, creating a fresh yet noble visual effect.
The Xipi technique involves repeated layering and polishing of lacquer to create naturally undulating textures on the surface. Green and gold interweave—nobility within freshness, vitality within serenity. Every detail is as vibrant as spring sprouts—a perfect crystallization of time and craftsmanship.
Color Symbolism: Green symbolizes life, growth, and hope, representing flourishing vitality and thriving prosperity in Eastern culture. Golden accents shine like sunlight, symbolizing wealth and good fortune, presenting an overall fresh spring-like beauty, signifying vigorous life force, a brilliant future, abundant growth, and enduring blessings.
❖ Botanical Perfection
Beneath the vibrant palette lies a 100% botanical heart. The interior is hand-sealed with food-safe Raw Urushi, a legendary lacquer tree sap that is naturally antibacterial, heat-resistant, and becomes more durable over centuries of use.
