Design Concept:

This piece is crafted in blue-green, representing "wood" in the Five Elements and evoking a sense of hope and renewal. The circular shape, expertly polished by hand, reflects a harmonious balance between nature and humanity. At the center, a diamond shape symbolizes the earth and abundance, while a snake winds gracefully around it, intertwining the forces of humanity and nature. This blend of curves and straight lines adds depth and a touch of mystery.

Tiny circles adorn the snake's body, resembling constellations and symbolizing humanity's reach for the stars. In ancient Chinese philosophy, the circle and square represented the universe—a way of finding simplicity within complexity. This piece captures that philosophy, symbolizing endless renewal and transformation. It embodies Liuli’s wish for the new year: a design that enriches the spirit and inspires growth, harmony, and boundless possibility.
