Poets of the Orchid Pavilion Compact Mirror

Adding a touch of timeless poetic beauty to your days on the go, this compact mirror design is inspired by the Shen Yun dance piece Poets of the Orchid Pavilion.

In March of the year 353 C.E., a group of esteemed scholars gathered at the Orchid Pavilion on Mt. Kuaiji for a creative poetry contest over drinks.

The group had a jolly good time competing with one another’s lilting verses, producing poems inspired by the stunning landscape, some of which would become famous.

The most notable piece was the “Preface,” a masterpiece to commemorate the convivial gathering, which was penned by the Sage of Calligraphy, Wang Xizhi.
