An orchid that will never wilt.

开不败的花

工艺 · The Making

An orchid, permanently in bloom

Every petal of this orchid is cast separately — lost-wax glass, fired at 1400°C, cooled for two weeks. The roots settle into a bed of blue-and-white glass beads inside a hand-thrown ceramic pot that will never need water.

Real orchids ask for patience and repay you with a week of bloom. This one asks for a window ledge.

Look closer

Every centimetre is a decision the maker — or the kiln — made. These are the moments collectors look for first.

孤品 · ONE OF ONE

Why there will never be another

1400°C琉璃熔点 Casting heat
14 d退火冷却 Annealing
1孤品 A unique arrangement

Each petal carries its own gradient — the glass decides where blue ends and violet begins as it cools. Cast the same mould again and the light will pool differently. The orchid you see is the only one the kiln made this way.

“The real orchid faded in a week. This one will not.”
