Floral Elegance Landscape & Nature Figurines & Sculptures

Heavenly pine is a three-inlay ruyi, or ceremonial sceptre, fashioned using the signature pâte de verre technique. It depicts a hardy pine tree growing out of a boulder that forms the base of the ruyi. The head of the ruyi is a cluster of pine needles that fans out from the trunk. The evergreen needles of the pine tree figurine symbolize vitality and auspiciousness, and the sculpture conveys wishes for longevity, peace, and health, making it an excellent gift for a close friend. The needles are rendered with the usual attention to detail, and the complex shades of colour throughout the trunk catch the eye, inviting further study and contemplation.
