25 October 2024 ￭ Hong Kong – In every precious love story, two souls come together, embodying the care and countless blessings from their elders and celebrating the rich tradition behind their union. Chow Tai Fook’s “Bond To Love” Collection intertwines these love stories through exquisite jewellery and masterful gold craftsmanship, with each piece serving as a testament to the promises made between two hearts.

The “Bond To Love” Collection features two exquisite designs — the “Square Ruyi” motif and the “Firmiana Simplex” motif, showcasing exceptional creativity and artistry. The “Square Ruyi” motif draws inspiration from traditional marriage symbols, such as the Chinese double-lozenge pattern and Ruyi pattern, signifying lifelong connection and the hope for a harmonious, blessed union.

Meanwhile, the “Firmiana Simplex” motif is inspired from the ancient Chinese love tree, symbolising interdependence and love, wishing couples eternal happiness. With impeccable gold craftsmanship and a blend of festive tradition and contemporary design, the “Bond To Love” Collection is perfect for both wedding celebrations and everyday wear. Each piece carries blessings of love, allowing couples to cherish these sentiments throughout their lives.

REVIVING TRADITIONAL FESTIVE PATTERNS WITH EXQUISITE GOLD CRAFTMANSHIP

In traditional Chinese weddings, auspicious patterns and motifs symbolise the deep bonds of love between couples and the abundant blessings bestowed by their families. The “Square Ruyi” motif combines the meanings of unity and connection through the Chinese double-lozenge pattern, and Ruyi pattern, which represents a harmonious married life. Through these traditional motifs, the Collection conveys heartfelt wishes for couples to remain united in spirit, fostering love that endures for a lifetime.

Embracing a minimalist Chinese aesthetic, this collection blends modern designs with auspicious symbols. Inspired by contemporary wedding gown patterns, it delivers elegant, stylish pieces that maintain a festive spirit. Each creation reflects the exceptional craftmanship of Chow Tai Fook artisans, featuring a double-layered design that utilise techniques such as gold wiring and light sand polishing, delicately presenting symbols of happiness. This collection preserves the rich heritage of Chinese culture while enabling elders and couples to express their blessings and love through these exquisite pieces.

INTERPRETING ANCIENT SYMBOLS OF LOVE IN MODERN DESIGN

The Firmiana Simplex, often depicted by traditional Chinese scholars, symbolises love and noble character in ancient poetry. The “Firmiana Simplex” motif draws inspiration from this poetic symbol of unwavering love, transforming golden leaves into tokens of emotional connection. It signifies that couples are as closely connected as the leaves of the Firmiana Simplex, walking hand in hand through life’s journey, with their love as rare and enduring as gold.

Incorporating modern Chinese aesthetics, the Collection uses the textures of the Firmiana Simplex as a primary design element. Artisans employ a gradient gold wiring technique to capture the delicate texture of the leaves, creating a striking contrast with smooth edges and highlighting the rich three-dimensionality and intricacy of the leaves. The pieces feature single-layer hollow designs that showcase the lightweight quality of the leaves, decorated with golden fruits and fallen leaves, symbolising the blossoming of love and the continuation of life through future generations.
