{"product_id":"green-geometric-patterns-crane-ornament","title":"Green Geometric Patterns Crane Ornament","description":"\u003cp\u003eShaped like a paper crane, this porcelain ornament is embellished with both thin and thick lines of gold and traditional Japanese motifs in shades of green, black, and white. Meticulously hand-painted by skilled artisans, the gold glimmers as it catches the light, while more detail reveals itself with every glance. Placed on a shelf, nestled in an entryway, or adorning a table centerpiece, this crane ornament invites quiet tranquility into a space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach piece takes as many as twelve steps to complete. First, the edges are outlined in gold. Then, artisans apply multiple undercoats of color, with kiln firings between each coat. This results in a smooth, even finish. The main motifs are then painted, followed by intricate gold detailing. The piece is completed through layered decoration and repeated kiln firings. A single piece might be fired up to eight times before it is complete.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery element of the design holds meaning. The crane shape itself was chosen by lead designer Kinosawa, who was born in Hiroshima, for its symbolism of peace.
