Fête Chinoise | Moonlit Jade

In collaboration with Fête Chinoise (Fetechinoise.ca), we celebrate the lunar new year with a stunning pair of Jade inks. Presenting Sunlit Jade, a warm lockwood green ink punctuated by a magnificent gold shimmer, and Moonlit Jade, which glistens in a starlight silver.

Showcasing an unexpected green tone, this latest collection is inspired by the richness of traditional Jade gemstones, bringing a sense of history and cultural significance to your every stroke.

The packaging design of this special edition Curious Collaborations Series was created in partnership with Fête Chinoise, a Chinese Canadian platform whose goal is to empower individuals to deepen the connection between identity and Chinese culture. “Through a curated lens and critical thinking, we present meaningful stories, artful experiences, and inspiring products.”

Together with Fête Chinoise, we created a pair of unique hand-illustrated designs that draw from traditional apothecary packaging.

Notable design details:

• Inspired Chinese apothecary packaging design
• Traditional and familiar elements drawn from balms and ointments, symbolizing warmth, family and familiarity
• Peony florals to represent prosperity, good fortune, and honour
• Water tigers of the Chinese zodiac
• Auspicious sayings:
  • The dance of the ink, the song of the pen
  • The momentum of culture
