Liuli / Art glass - 琉璃 (Liú Lí)
琉璃 (Liú Lí) — light, made permanent. Liuli is the ancient Chinese art of decorative glass — a material at the intersection of fire, light, and myth. Each object is unique: the play of light through its layers, the subtle variations in colour and form, the faint traces of the maker’s process are all part of the work’s identity.

What Is Liuli?
Liuli (琉璃) refers to coloured decorative glass in the Chinese tradition — distinct from functional glassware in its emphasis on artistic form, layered colour, and the interplay of light and translucency. Historically associated with imperial craft and Buddhist art, contemporary Liuli continues to be made using labour-intensive, small-batch techniques. No two objects are identical.
