This collection is inspired by the immersive sensory experience of a fresh, relaxing Asian water garden.
A harmony made of tactile materials, lush nature, soothing sounds, and earthy scents. It envisions a place of quiet grounding that invites you to sit by the pond on a breezy afternoon, losing yourself in the slow, melodic movement of a trickling water stream.
At the heart of the collection, the magnificent lotus takes center stage, its petals unfolding gracefully against a backdrop of light blue and deep navy waters, celadon greens, and soft coral accents.
Delicate Marsilea water clovers and elegant water irises rise from the pond’s bubbly surface, framed by pond pebbles and the quiet dance of iridescent dragonflies. The organic textures speak to a slower, more mindful era of artisanal craft. The tactile beauty of uneven glazed ceramics, Chinese knot patterns, rattan and macramé-inspired borders, and watery textures are beautifully translated into the collection’s coordinating prints.
