Taiwania, known for its vibrant colors that change over time, has earned the title "Seven-Colored Asia Cypress" due to the rainbow-like hues found in its heartwood. The series highlights the beauty of Taiwan's natural scenery, with a focus on high mountain lakes and rivers in the central and southern regions, where the Taiwan Cypress thrives. This design incorporates glass tiles to represent the shimmering surface of the lakes and rivers, capturing the essence of sparkling water reflections in light. Additionally, drawing inspiration from the indigenous Rukai tribe's poetic name for the tree — "the tree that touches the moon" — the moon imagery is subtly embedded in the design, adding a layer of mystery and poetry. The result is a fusion of nature's beauty with human symbolism. In the product, the tissue box features blue glass tiles that shimmer under light, resembling the sparkling reflections of water. This innovative use of materials adds new meaning and function to glass tiles, combining them with the natural elegance of Taiwania to create an exquisite blend of different materials. Important Notes: 1. This product is made to order, with delivery expected within 2 weeks after the order is placed. 2. The texture of the Taiwania is unique, so each piece will have slightly different grain and color. Some pieces of solid wood may have slight warping, and dimensions may vary. Since the production process is handmade, there may be slight discrepancies. Additionally, the glass tiles are slightly different from one another. Perfectionists should carefully consider these factors.
