Crystal Sake Glass (Set of 2) - "Virtuous Chrysanthemum"

$120.00
SKU: VTB039.ATXAA

In “A Drink to Virtue,” the seasons are celebrated in the ritual of drinking. They are, by classic literature, the anthropomorphic representation of each season of the year—each unique and beautiful in his own right. Winter is represented by the violet plum blossom; autumn by the Chrysanthemum; the summer by bamboo; and the freshness of spring by the delicate orchid.

 

Artwork Poem

A Drink to Virtue
- Virtuous Chrysanthemum

People of virtue,
An encounter, a common understanding,
A shared regret of not having known one another sooner.
Lest more time be wasted,
Let us drink.

四季君子飲
- 菊君子

是君子,
相逢便相知,
相知總恨晚。
是知己,
一杯飲為先。
