"Picking chrysanthemums under the East fence, seeing Nanshan leisurely". After thousands of years of Chinese chrysanthemum culture precipitation, it is not only a literary image used by literati from ancient times to modern times, but also a state and artistic conception of people's life.


The designer said:


The chrysanthemum pattern in the inner mould of the carved bowl evolved from nature, which mainly describes entangled chrysanthemums. The image of chrysanthemum is direct-viewing and obvious. When designing the image of the chrysanthemum, we tried to methodize it and pursue richness in the simplicity of chrysanthemum, which makes it looks simple and bright, vivid and concise. We extracted the patterns and shapes of this carved bowl, and made it into a super cute and fragrant honey soap.
