Snake Measuring Tape Couplet

HK$488.00Price

What does your snake want to do when it sleeps stretched out beside you?

 

That’s when it measures whether it can fit you in its body!

 

I’ve heard of this story years ago from I-don’t-know-where, and have always wanted to make a piece of art about it.

 

Here, a critter bunny is being measured by her snake friend and ends up being in her friend’s tummy.

 

A bit macabre for Chinese New Year?

 

I LOVE IT!!! Hahaha!!!

 

The pieces are teal and white, inspired by the Chinese romance legend “The White Snake” 白蛇傳 with a white snake spirit and a scholar. Oh, the green snake is her best friend.

 

Find the sun and the moon in the two pieces.

Get your cool unconventional Chinese New Year couplet to welcome the Year of the Snake! Either to decorate your room or office, or just to freak out your relatives!

 

Please do freak out your relatives.

 

These couplets are printed on archival textured 320g watercolour paper. When I first unwrapped the samples from the printer, both my father and I WOWED. My father thought they were printed on velvet. Honestly, I felt the same even though I knew they were printed on archival watercolour paper.
