EIYANME is a striking home décor piece that blends geometric elegance with innovative water flow technology. Its minimalist design draws inspiration from the natural beauty of Erhai Lake in Dali, Yunnan, where sunlight sparkles on water. The fusion of flowing water, intricate lighting, and metal craftsmanship evokes the dazzling brilliance of diamonds, creating a sense of refined simplicity in any living space.


Innovative Form and Functionality: The sculpture integrates a half-hollow cylinder and a full cylinder, with precise geometry to optimize both space and aesthetics. The hollowed-out design houses both the motor and lighting, balancing technical elements with visual appeal. Topped with a circular decorative piece made from sintered stone, it represents peace and harmony—a perfect reflection of people's aspirations for a good life.

Pioneering Water Flow Technology: The use of SUS304 stainless steel with a unique hand-crafted random brushed finish showcases cutting-edge metalworking techniques. The nano-coating on the surface prevents smudges and fingerprints, ensuring lasting durability and aesthetic appeal. This is the first home décor piece to employ laser-cut hollowed-out metal techniques to guide the water flow, creating elegant ripples enhanced by soft lighting.

Dynamic Lighting and Water Play: The gentle interplay of water and light produces a dazzling, diamond-like shimmer, offering an immersive sensory experience. The gridded metal design optimizes water flow, dispersing light beautifully and ensuring the water’s movement remains smooth and calming. The minimalistic look is enhanced by carefully placed lighting that creates a warm and serene atmosphere.



Space Efficiency: Measuring 1260mm in height and 219mm in diameter, EIYANME occupies a minimal footprint (0.037 sqm) while delivering a vast water display area of 0.24 sqm—significantly larger than traditional water sculptures. This larger flow area promotes natural evaporation, making it an excellent natural humidifier without creating an oppressive feeling. During testing, the product achieved evaporation of approximately 3.32 liters in 24 hours, under optimal conditions (69% humidity, 28°C, no wind), enhancing room comfort.
