— A letter, folded once · 一 信 · 折 一 —

To the one
who opened this box.

致 · 開 啟 此 盒 之 人

If you are reading this, the vessel beside you was hand-chosen — not from the shelf, but from the day. We picked it on a Tuesday in early autumn, and it has been waiting for you ever since.

若您正讀此信,您身旁之器,乃手選——非自架上,而自時日。我們於初秋的一個週二選定,自彼日起,它便候您。

The brewing is on the underside of the lid; the verse is in the leaves; the room — the room is whichever one you have, today.

沖泡之法,在蓋之內側;序,在葉中;至於此室——即您今日所擁之室。

No reply is asked for. No photograph is invited. If the vessel finds a quiet half-hour with you, we have done what we set out to do.

無需回信。無需拍照。若此器與您共度一段靜默之半時,我們便已成所欲為之事。
