This is a "广寒宫 (Guǎnhán Gōng, which translates to 'Cold Palace' ) succulent (Echeveria 'Cante')" handcrafted from clay, a type of succulent plant from the Crassulaceae family, known for its unique appearance and color, which has won it much affection.

In Chinese mythology, the  (Guǎnhán Gōng, which translates to 'Palace of Broad Cold') is the residence of 嫦娥 (Cháng'é, Chang'e), the Moon Goddess, on the moon. This palace is often depicted as a beautiful but desolate place, reflecting the solitude of Chang'e who, according to legend, lives there with her companion, a jade rabbit, after consuming an elixir of immortality that caused her to ascend to the moon.

Production Time: Approximately 6 days.

Order Recommendation: Due to the cost of long-distance international shipping, we suggest purchasing only the plant itself and installing it in your own pot. Of course, you can also purchase a set, but please note that the shipping cost for the pot is much higher than the price of the pot itself. Care Instructions:

  1. Avoid direct sunlight: Prolonged exposure to sunlight may cause the clay craft to fade or become brittle.
  2. Avoid damp environments: Clay crafts should be kept away from damp places, as moisture may cause the clay to absorb water, making it fragile or prone to mold.
  3. Avoid collisions: Clay crafts are generally fragile and should be protected from collisions with hard objects to prevent damage.
  4. Regular cleaning: Gently wipe the surface of the clay craft with a soft cloth to remove dust. Avoid using rough fabrics or cleaning agents that may scratch the surface.
  5. Avoid contact with chemicals: Clay crafts should be kept away from acidic, alkaline substances, solvents, perfumes, and other chemicals that may corrode them.

Please note that the direct translation of "广寒宫" (Guǎnhán Gōng) may not convey the intended meaning or the beauty of the name in English. It is often associated with the Moon Palace in Chinese mythology, which is a place of beauty and tranquility. If you are looking for a name that captures this essence in English, you might consider a poetic translation such as "Moon Palace Succulent" or a similar term that reflects the plant's elegance.
