Design Concept:

Gui (簋) vessel is an ancient bronze vessel typically circular or oval-shaped with two handles. Its bottom is rounded and it is often used for holding food.  In ancient Chinese rituals, gui symbolizes harvest, harmony, and auspiciousness, and also represents societal stability and harmony. The etching text was adapted from Confucius saying,  "The wise are joyful, the benevolent are longevity."
