The Land's Narrate - Rock series of tea sets combines Chinese aesthetics and natural rocks in a unique design language. The design takes inspiration from the slender and smooth bronze goblets of the Shang Dynasty. Despite its simplified form, it retains the functionality of its utensil origins.
Through differentiated craftsmanship and colour schemes with vibes, the products highlight the genuine texture and build an emotional connection with consumers. The specially treated white cups are skin-feeling porcelain; the surface is delicate, gentle, and soft as a baby's skin. The other two colours are treated with the caressing glaze process, which increases the friction of the cup. All of these series with the undulating texture optimise the cup's weight distribution and support structure, achieving a more effortless grip with a 'Without Thought' design concept. The colour schemes of peach blossom pink and aqua blue-green have been inspired by a red porcelain goblet with a shadow-green glaze from the Yuan Dynasty. This goblet is reminiscent of the Eastern tea-drinking scene, where red peach blossoms and green willows were commonly seen, in line with traditional Chinese aesthetics. The design team uses natural texture to express life and experience, and the cup's undulating lines symbolise its fluidity. This texture is found in rocks that undergo melting and reshaping applied to the minimalist Eastern tea set, which is dynamic and beautiful, creating a unique blend of Eastern and modern aesthetics and expressing the fact that the formation of a person's mindset is also a process of accumulating and storing energy, melting and fusing, and then becoming stronger as time goes by.
Overall, the tea set combines natural beauty, functionality and minimalist Chinese aesthetics, showcasing a powerful design concept and a cosy lifestyle.
