Taiwanese designer Hsia-Ying Lin has worked together with craft artisan Jun-Ching Tang on the
'Moon Rabbit' cup and plate.
The creation is a result of 'Yii', an initiative of Taiwan Craft Research Institute, whose aim is to encourage Taiwanese people to cultivate an appreciation of the country's
traditional crafts. The exhibition was on show at the Triennale Museum, Milan during Design Week 2010.
A ideia de criar surpresa e substituir o uso nos objetos cotidianos é um movimento no design mundial que veio ganhando força na Europa nos últimos anos. Uma criação com essa, que abusa do inesperado e promove o artesanato local, com o toque a mais da delicadeza oriental, é uma inspiração e tanto para as nossas linguagens regionais aqui na Latina.

Haha - I almost wrote about this, too. It reminds of a mug I had as a little girl with a swan attached the the bottom inside.
