This is a creative fridge magnet that blends artifacts from ancient Shu culture with elements of Chengdu's renowned flowers. Designed with intricately patterned Chinese window lattices exuding Eastern charm, it carries the poetic concept of "flowers when closed, vessels when opened," conveying the joy of a city in full bloom.

The fridge magnet's window lattice is artfully crafted from collages of Chengdu's iconic flowers, each bloom symbolizing heartfelt blessings. The intricate openwork design draws inspiration from traditional Chinese window grilles, with subtle bottom patterns peeking through when closed—exuding understated elegance. To elevate the experience, Swarovski crystals adorn the lattice, scattering dazzling light with every movement. The interplay of florals and sparkle transforms each open-and-close motion into a moment of ritual beauty.

When opened, the base reveals intricate engravings from hunting scene and high-footed censer with bi-color glaze of green and yellow from Qiong kiln, crafted with innovative techniques. From "Blossoms bring joy" to "The town's heavy with blooms", the interplay of poetry, floral motifs, and ancient artifacts breathes vivid life into 3,000-year-old Shu civilization. For added collectible appeal, the fridge magnet can be paired with a wooden display frame and a personalized plaque bearing a unique serial number, transforming it into an elegant desk ornament.

Regarding material application, each crystal is cast using clean energy, paired with cyanide-free electroplating to minimize environmental impact. The fridge magnet replaces traditional microplastics with plant-based adhesives to bind natural mineral particles, creating an eco-friendly glitter layer. Its modular structure allows for easy disassembly and replacement, seamlessly merging timeless aesthetics with remarkable sustainability.
