Xingyun, The Flowing Dragon
Christofle, a renowned Parisian silversmith established in 1830, and Zheng Lu, the celebrated Chinese sculptor, join forces to present an exceptional masterpiece of artisanal craftsmanship and cultural exchange. Emerging in an elegantly intricate silhouette of a flowing dragon, the artwork is a testament to the pursuit of perfection.
This collaboration manifests the shared values of both the brand and the artist: a harmonious blend of reverence to tradition and visionary innovation.
