In the December 2024 issue of Vogue International Chinese Edition, the feature "Radiant Play" vividly explores the chameleon-like allure of opals and their esteemed position among top-tier jewelry houses. 

Lin Shiao Tung's piece, "Kyoto Impressions," shines in the "Garden in Bloom" section, infusing opals with profound poetry and layered meaning. This creation stands out as a contemporary masterpiece that draws inspiration from the beauty of nature.

"In a single piece of jewelry, the juxtaposition of a distant view and a microscopic focus exists along the same temporal axis. The opal is a cluster of blossoms with softened contours, while the lifelike flowers encircling the central stone are individual elements carefully drawn out from the whole. This allows you to perceive the essence of an entire garden — a case of ‘seeing autumn through a single leaf’ and ‘understanding the whole through the smallest detail.’" — VOGUE

Messenger of Happiness – Kyoto Impression

Perceiving the essence of an entire garden’s autumn through a single leaf, and understanding the grand artistic vision within the subtle play of light and shadow — this is the romantic ingenuity of designer Lin Shiao Tung. With the opal’s dreamy iridescence, you are invited into a garden of poetry, blooming layer by layer.
