Qilin Amid Clouds · A Backward Glance

A qilin’s path, followed by clouds. Qilin Amid Clouds · A Backward Glance shares the collection’s circular outline, deep forest-green colored brass and restrained warm-brass accents. A single qilin moves right along the upper rim while turning its head back left; its long tail curls at right above a single thin cloud below. Shallow scale relief meets fine lines, with clear space around the central and two auxiliary apertures. The reverse retains a returning cloud at upper right and a small tail arc at lower left. The primary motif and simpler reverse echo one another. Black wrapping, ivory diamond windows and plain warm-brass fittings continue the shared visual rhythm of Qilin Amid Clouds.
