Description
'Abundance' is a happy word in Chinese culture. It is often written in calligraphy on a piece of red paper and stuck outside of rice containers in the beginning of a new year to wish for a good year. Designer Kate uses terra cotta and silicone lid to translate the thinking into modern airtight canisters with a touch of Zen. Also, with a whisk of imagination, you can turn them into a sleek vase.
'Abundance' is a happy word in Chinese culture. It is often written in calligraphy on a piece of red paper and stuck outside of rice containers in the beginning of a new year to wish for a good year. While one of the key Chinese philosophies describes that the earth is square and the heaven is round to manifest the stability and the mobility, the yin and yang, designer Kate takes the line and uses terra cotta and silicone lid to translate the thinking into modern airtight canisters with a touch of Zen. Also, with a whisk of imagination, you can turn them into a sleek vase.
