ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Story
the light pink shade ikkonzome (一斤染) refers to a delicate, refined hue that blends elements of white and soft cherry blossom pink - often used in traditional textiles and ceramics, symbolizing elegance and subtlety. historically, the use of this specific color required approval or adherence to strict guidelines, as it was associated with nobility and formal occasions. the controlled use ensured that the color retained its cultural value and exclusivity, making it a sought-after tone for items meant to convey grace and distinction.
this artwork seamlessly pairs complementary shades of pink to create a more visually compelling effect, with added strokes of pearlescent white and neutrals that represent v&v's signature use of metallics and natural tones.
