As we celebrate the National Cherry Blossom Festival, Appalachian Spring honors the influence of Asian Art on American Craft.Asian art timelessly reflects the beauty in simplicity of surface design and form. Many American craftspeople have been inspired to incorporate elements of this art form into their own work. The quiet beauty of the Asian Art influence runs throughout our collection at Appalachian Spring: in ceramic vases, wooden boxes, blown glass and ikebana... a statement that the artistic spirit truly transcends geographic boundaries.
