Hold the wave. Hear the sea.
Echoes of the Sea is a white porcelain cup and saucer set inspired by the port city of Kaohsiung — where the ocean is not a backdrop but a presence. The cup handle is a wave caught mid-curl, its form simultaneously a cresting billow and a listening ear. The figure-eight saucer is the surface of the sea at rest: one side for the cup, one side for a sweet or a spoon, giving each drink its own quiet order.

A solitary moment — listening inward
One person, one cup, a quiet corner. The wave handle gives the act of drinking alone a quality of ceremony. No ocean view required — just a cup of coffee or tea, and the willingness to be still for a moment.
Tea or coffee with good friend
The figure-eight saucer gives two cups their own natural territory on the table, with room for something sweet on the side. The generous spirit of the ocean sets the tone — unhurried, open, at ease.
On the desk or at the entrance — always present
When not in use, the wave handle silhouette reads as a small white porcelain sculpture — worth looking at on its own terms. On a desk or at the entrance, it carries the spirit of the open ocean into whatever space it occupies.
