Alliance of brute strength and delicacy, juxtaposition of the shape to the curved lines of the sculpted motifs, the Pivoines votive embodies a contrast of mineral strength and floral romanticism. Symbol of prosperity, beauty and honor, the peony is an emblematic flower, especially in China where it is often depicted. As if carved in the gouge of a rock, garlands of flowers take possession of crystal, like luxuriant nature takes its rightful place over abandoned constructions. Their modeling also evokes the process of Lost Wax sculpture, when the craftsman breaks the plaster mould to reveal the piece.
