for Christofle

A collection designed for Christofle, a French silverware manufacture established in 1830.
First, a floral pattern was created, with petals being connected one by one in order to express a branch with cherry blossoms in full bloom, resembling a star constellation in the night sky that weaves various stories by connecting numerous dots with a line.
Silver finishing, for which Christofle is distinctly renown,was used as the main material and combined with other materials such as glass and lacquer ware. The traditional colours of Japan such as cherry blossom pink,greenish brown – resembling tender green tea, and indigo blue were incorporated together with the floral pattern. The packaging of the two types of candles and glass containers feature the same pattern.
A single silver petal was dropped onto the wax, with a view to duplicate the scene of a falling petal settling in a sake cup while viewing cherry blossoms. Furthermore, by hooking a silver clip, cut out into a floral pattern, the impression that the hand-blown glass vase is seemingly adorned with a necklace is achieved.
The collection was named “constellation” after the cherry blossom design using constellations as a motif and to express the “connection”of people to people through gifting.

专为法国1830年建立的银器制造商Christofle设计的系列。

首先，设计了一种花卉图案，将花瓣一片片连在一起，表达一个枝头盛开的樱花，就像夜空中的一个星座，用一条线将无数的点连接起来，编织出不同的故事。

克里斯托夫尔以银饰而闻名，它被用作主要材料，并与玻璃和漆器等其他材料相结合。日本的传统颜色，如樱花、粉红色、类似嫩绿茶的绿棕色和靛蓝，都与花卉图案结合在一起。这两种蜡烛和玻璃容器的包装风格相同。

一个银色的花瓣落在蜡上，目的是复制花瓣落在清酒杯中观赏樱花的场景。此外，通过将银夹子钩住，剪成花卉图案，手工吹制的玻璃花瓶似乎装饰着一条项链的印象就实现了。

该系列以樱花图案命名为“星座”，以星座为主题，通过送礼来表达人与人之间的“联系”。
