Stand high, and see the light.
The place
Mount Emei rises in western China to a Golden Summit more than three thousand metres high. Pilgrims walk for days to stand at the edge of the sea of clouds. On a clear day, with the sun behind them, they may see a ring of rainbow light on the clouds below — and their own shadow at its centre. The mountain people call it Buddha's Light, and say not everyone who waits will see it.
Thirteen hundred years ago, the poet Li Bai saw a half-moon of autumn above Mount Emei and wrote a poem about it. Chinese schoolchildren still learn it by heart today.
The design
Snow Summit is three overlapping peaks, like mountains seen through falling snow. The surface is matte, soft as mist; a single polished edge catches the light like the first ray on a ridge.
The meaning
Metal, in the Five Elements: autumn air, the clear ring of a bell, and protection. Silver has long been worn to guard the body, ward off harm, and keep the mind clear. Climb high enough and the light will find you — this piece is for anyone still on the way up.
