Silver Radiance
Light That Deepens With Time
Exclusively by Taiwu Studio, Silver Radiance explores the meeting point between brilliance and restraint.
A full silver-gilt foundation reflects light with quiet authority.
Across this luminous surface, hand-painted florals emerge—color suspended over metal, movement over stillness.
It is a set that does not simply shine. It evolves.
How It Feels
Luminous · Refined · Layered
The silver surface carries a soft metallic glow rather than a mirror-like glare.
In hand, the porcelain remains balanced and grounded, preventing the visual richness from feeling excessive.
The painted petals appear almost elevated above the silver base.
Light shifts across the surface as steam rises, revealing subtle dimensionality.
Why It’s Different
Silver as Living Surface
Unlike simple metallic glaze, this collection is fully silver-gilted and then hand-painted with polychrome motifs.
Over time, the silver will naturally oxidize, gently darkening and developing patina.
This aging process adds depth and antique character.
You may polish it to restore brightness.
Or allow the surface to mature—recording your tea sessions through time.
Luxury, not frozen—but lived.
