Craftsmanship & Materials

✦ Purely Handmade Double-Sided Embroidery

This piece is crafted using traditional double-sided Suzhou embroidery, a technique dating back to the Song Dynasty.

• Embroidered on a single, ultra-thin silk base

• Each stitch is mirrored on both sides

• No knots, no visible thread ends

The silk’s natural sheen enhances the softness of the lotus, while the solid wood frame provides warmth and structure.

The frame is assembled using traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery, a classic Chinese woodworking technique used for centuries.

• No nails or metal fasteners

Moonlight over the Lotus Pond

In Chinese culture, the lotus represents purity, resilience, and quiet grace — rising untouched from the water, blooming calmly under the moonlight.

This artwork draws inspiration from the classical scene of a lotus pond at night:

soft petals, broad leaves, and lotus roots hidden beneath the surface, all illuminated by a tranquil moon.

Hand-embroidered on both sides of ultra-fine silk, the scene appears identical from every angle — a reflection of balance, patience, and mastery.

Placed in a living room, study, or personal space, it brings a sense of stillness, warmth, and contemplation.

It is not merely decoration, but a reminder to slow down.

Kapok Blossoms with Paired Birds

A branch in full bloom holds two birds facing one another, their white feathers set against a field of red blossoms.

The scene does not suggest movement, but presence — a moment where nothing needs to happen for meaning to exist.

Hand-embroidered on silk, this design captures warmth, companionship, and the quiet balance found in shared stillness.

Phoenix Among Peonies

A golden phoenix descends diagonally across the silk, its gaze drawn toward a single, radiant bloom.

Strength meets beauty in a moment of restraint rather than dominance.

This piece reflects renewal and dignity — a classical composition where power is softened by grace, and motion is guided by intention.

Peonies and Peacocks

Two peacocks stand amid layered blossoms, partially revealed through leaves and petals.

One turns back, the other remains still, creating a sense of quiet awareness rather than display.

Embroidered with fine detail, this design speaks of elegance without excess and beauty that does not seek attention.

Butterflies Drawn to Bloom

A large blossom fills the composition, accompanied by a smaller unopened bud.

Two butterflies approach, suspended between arrival and flight.

This design reflects transformation and fleeting beauty — a reminder that some moments are defined by their gentleness rather than their duration.

Peonies and Koi Fish

Beneath inverted blossoms, two koi glide through open space, their movement calm and unhurried.

Stillness above contrasts with motion below, creating a balanced rhythm within the frame.

This composition suggests continuity, flow, and quiet abundance — embroidered with patience, and meant to be viewed slowly.

Peach Blossoms with Paired Birds

Two birds rest close together on a flowering branch, their forms overlapping as they face one another.

The composition feels intimate, almost private, as if capturing a moment not meant to be observed for long.

Soft in tone and detail, this piece reflects tenderness, closeness, and shared calm.
