Design Concept:

The scroll vine dragon motif transforms into the double ears of the Ding cauldron, which, after undergoing meticulous artistic treatment, evokes the graceful wings of celestial beings, with twin dragons guarding and invoking prayers for peace and harmony. The dragon heads at the ears are crafted with translucent clarity, gradually thickening towards the body with delicate hollowing out, a testament to the finesse of the lost-wax casting method applied to glass. The belly of the cauldron gently bulges with thicker walls, and the rim is adorned with a continuous vine pattern, subtly suggesting the perpetuity of lineage and the abundance of blessings and wisdom. This cauldron, steeped in ancestral tradition, symbolizes not only the hope for abundance and security in life but also serves as a vessel for sacrificial rituals. The circle, deeply symbolic, represents the heavens, inclusivity, and the embodiment of abundance and fulfillment.
