DESCRIPTION
For thousands of years, Chinese ceramics have accumulated rich historical relics. In order to spread the voice of China, we created the beautiful Liming Shuangxi Cup to show the world a credible, lovely and respectable image of China.
The idea takes the lotus suction cup collected by several major museums in China as the basis and refers to the "Jieying Cup" from the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty more than 650 years ago. The team of experts has combined traditional intangible cultural heritage skills and Chinese ceramic art with sinology thought of art.
"Liming Shuangxi Cup" uses the ceramic sculpture technique of the national intangible cultural heritage project, and combines the original suction cup with the original siphon leaf stem shape, and realizes the principle and possibility of siphon. is not only suitable for collection, but also can be used for health tea drinking.
The work has applied for national invention patent and it belongs to the original work including the shape of lotus leaf with oriental symbol aesthetic. The biggest feature is the smart design of the double tubes. It’s okay to pour water into the cup under the 80% line of the cup. If the water is over 80%, the water will all run out of the cup. It explained the classic Chinese thought "Fullness causes loss and modesty benefits" . It represents the long history of ceramics, and contains the essence of Chinese culture. As a rare art treasure in the world, Liming Shuangxi Cup tells the "Chinese story" well and strengthens cultural confidence.
