Crane
Crane has been an enduring subject of artistic and literary expression in Asian cultures for centuries, thanks to its rich cultural significance.
In ancient Chinese legends and folklore, cranes were believed to possess mystical powers, live for a thousand years, and fly to the heavens. They were often seen as a good omen, and their presence was thought to bring good luck and prosperity. In traditional Chinese paintings, the crane is often depicted alongside other symbols of good fortune, such as the pine tree and the bamboo, representing longevity, resilience, and strength.
Similarly, in Japan, the crane holds a prominent place in Japanese culture and is considered a mystical creature, believed to live for a thousand years. The paper crane, a popular origami design, is often folded by people as a symbol of hope, healing, and peace. The crane is also associated with the Japanese legend of the "Tanabata" festival, where it represents hope, healing, and love.
As artisan first company, we take pride in paying tribute to the crane's cultural significance in both Chinese and Japanese traditions through our handcrafted designs. We aim to embody the beauty and symbolism of this mystical creature, which represents longevity, happiness, peace, hope, healing, and prosperity. We honor the tradition of exchanging porcelain pieces adorned with crane designs as a symbol of blessings during significant events, such as birthdays, weddings, and anniversaries, and strive to create handcrafted pieces that bless your life with these qualities.
