Four Seasons in Bloom · Summer Lotus

Flowers mark the seasons; silver-white light stays quiet. Four Seasons in Bloom · Summer Lotus uses natural white copper. A lotus leaf rests at the lower right as a small bloom rises along the rim. Shallow ripples at the lower left lead into the open field. The shared softly four-lobed mokko outline, a single fine inner border and smooth thin rim gathers the composition. Bright clean natural silver-white copper with pale-gray depth shadows is shaped by fine lines and shallow relief. Leaf veins at the lower left and a dew bead at the upper right continue the lotus motif. Black wrapping, ivory diamond windows and coordinated fittings connect the two faces. Each has its own balance of detail and open space, while sharing the material, palette and decorative language of Four Seasons in Bloom.
