Kapi / Collection
A letter with a mandarin: a cropped faded-indigo jacket, a large rounded belt bag, sandy trousers and soft chunky boots. The left paw holds the bag while the right presses an imagined letter close; a tea-filled mandarin is visible in its own protected compartment, its little lid touching the fruit.
Mandarin tea at home: a short ochre shirt with a chocolate collar and cream trousers. One paw supports a dry mandarin shell filled with pu-erh; the other lifts its little lid slightly, keeping it in contact with the fruit. No water, bag or letter.
Original form
An elongated, asymmetric amber-and-cream oval head, with the left cheek fuller than the right. Two small, thick tea buds at the back grow from one base, without a long stem. An elongated torso, broad short paws and feet. Dark-tea eyes open to different degrees and a friendly crooked smile.
