The Chinese Double-Sided Brocade Lotus Table Runner brings the timeless beauty of Chinese woven brocade to the tea ceremony - its deep blue ground alive with lotus blossoms in two distinct moods: one side bold and vibrant with red lotus on blue, the other side refined and contemplative with blue lotus on blue. Two ceremonies in one cloth, for every season of your tea practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDouble-Sided – Two Expressions, One Runner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThis runner is woven as a true double-sided brocade - each face a complete and finished textile in its own right, with its own distinct character and mood:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n• \u003cstrong\u003eSide One: Red Lotus on Blue\u003c\/strong\u003e – Warm, vivid, and celebratory. The red lotus blazes against the deep blue ground with the energy of a festival lantern, bringing vitality and joy to the tea table. This is the side for gatherings, for sharing tea with guests, for occasions that call for warmth and color.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n• \u003cstrong\u003eSide Two: Blue Lotus on Blue\u003c\/strong\u003e – Subtle, meditative, and deeply refined. The blue lotus emerges from the blue ground in a tonal harmony of extraordinary quietness - present but not insistent, beautiful in the way that things are beautiful when you look closely and slowly. This is the side for solitary tea sessions, for contemplation, for the kind of beauty that rewards patience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Lotus – Purity Rising from Still Water (莲花)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe lotus is the most beloved and spiritually resonant flower in Chinese and Buddhist art - rising from the mud of the riverbed to bloom in perfect, untouched purity above the water's surface, it is a symbol of spiritual awakening, moral integrity, and the possibility of beauty in the most unlikely places. The Song Dynasty philosopher Zhou Dunyi wrote of the lotus that it \"emerges from mud yet is not stained\" - a quality that has made it the flower of scholars, monks, and tea lovers for over a thousand years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWoven Brocade – Fabric with Depth (织锦)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThis table runner is woven in the brocade (织锦) tradition - a textile technique in which the pattern is woven directly into the fabric rather than printed onto its surface. The result is a cloth of exceptional tactile richness: the lotus motifs have a subtle three-dimensional quality, catching the light differently as you move around the table. Brocade holds its beauty over time and improves with use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFour Sizes for Every Tea Table\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAvailable in four lengths to suit every tea setting - from an intimate single-vessel arrangement to a full tea table for multiple guests. All runners share the same 30cm width, ideal for a tea tray, a row of cups, or a decorative accent along the center of a dining or console table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n• Material: Double-sided woven brocade fabric\u003cbr\u003e\n• Pattern: Lotus motif (莲花纹)\u003cbr\u003e\n• Side A: Red lotus on blue ground\u003cbr\u003e\n• Side B: Blue lotus on blue ground\u003cbr\u003e\n• Available sizes (width × length):\u003cbr\u003e\n   – 30cm × 120cm\u003cbr\u003e\n   – 30cm × 150cm\u003cbr\u003e\n   – 30cm × 180cm\u003cbr\u003e\n   – 30cm × 240cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"QIFU TEAHOUSE","offers":[{"title":"30cm*120cm","offer_id":44255780503603,"sku":null,"price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"30cm*150cm","offer_id":44255780536371,"sku":null,"price":78.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"30cm*180cm","offer_id":44255780569139,"sku":null,"price":88.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"30cm*240cm","offer_id":44255780601907,"sku":null,"price":118.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/9976\/0691\/files\/1a510975801d4b27f7fc885cf6c44605.jpg?v=1778052471","url":"https:\/\/www.qifutea.com\/products\/chinese-double-sided-brocade-lotus-table-runner-tea-ceremony-cloth-red-blue-lotus-on-blue-4-sizes","provider":"QIFU TEAHOUSE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
