INSPIRATION: Ceremony About A Plum
Our inspiration came from the narration about "plums branches" in chapter 32 of the Japanese literature, The Tale Of Genji. The picture adopted the painting style of Ukiyoe in the middle period of Edo Era, depicted the daily life of appreciating plums, picking plums, cooking plums and tasting plums. What's more interesting, we blended the plum core wasted during the process of cooking plums with the material of paper pulp, to produce the spoons and caps of the product.
