Ancient Wisdom & Cultural Heritage

In Chinese philosophy, the koi fish symbolizes perseverance and spiritual transformation, swimming upstream toward enlightenment. The lotus flower, rising pure from muddy waters, represents the awakening of consciousness. Together on this persimmon boat-shaped vessel, they create a powerful trinity of symbols that has guided meditation practices since the Tang Dynasty, when tea ceremony first became a spiritual discipline.
