This glasswork of a Chinese year of the dog zodiac was originally designed with the inspiration of paper-cut floral designs. Complexities in craftsmanship reflect a seamless blending of fur with a flower in this opulent piece, blooming with detail and color. While the design concept maintains its rich aesthetic, the impression left by the artwork is one of companionship and partnership. The subjects in mighty fortune communicate compassion and tenderness here that elevate the meaning of wealth in a way that pure ornamentation alone could not. This crystal glass piece expresses both wealth as well as kindness—because fortune means nothing without partnership. The bellflower found in the artwork symbolizes gratitude, unchanging love, and honesty.
