Design Concept:

The thin and curling edges of lotus leaves appear green or turquoise. Under the illumination of light, they create a shimmering effect, unique to glass and light. The carved edges of the lotus leaves are distinctly visible, reflecting light through their undulating surfaces and varying thicknesses. The lotus flowers, layered and yet to fully bloom, symbolize a delicate and understated expression of love. A pair of mandarin ducks, inseparable companions, swim together. Mandala lotus flowers are treasures among lotuses, with a single stem bearing two blossoms, symbolizing unity, shared blessings, and mutual happiness in life. Mandarin ducks, paired for life, symbolize faithful love. This artwork employs delicate techniques of color placement and second firing in pate de verre, meticulously controlling the temperature changes to reveal the rich feather colors and beak details of the mandarin ducks, presenting a piece with intricate layers of color.

設計概念說明：

荷葉的薄與卷邊，似綠，似藍。透過光的照射，形成波光粼粼的效果，是琉璃與光的獨有表現。雕刻上荷葉筆鋒清晰可見，再以起伏、厚薄折射光影；幷蒂荷花，層層疊疊，尚在將開未開，象徵愛意的表達清婉含蓄；一雙鴛鴦，形影相隨。幷蒂荷花是荷花中的珍品，莖杆一枝，花開兩朵，是同心、同根、同福、同生的象徵，鴛鴦出雙入對，因而將鴛鴦視爲忠貞愛情的象徵。此作品運用細膩的琉璃定色技法與二次燒結，將一對鴛鴦的豐富羽毛顏色與嘴喙層次展現，嚴格地把控升溫的變化曲綫，呈現色彩層次的作品。
