　　LOS ANGELES, Feb. 27 (Xinhua) -- A brand new collection of LIULI Crystal Art, “One Thought, One Universe,“ has become a major attraction at South Coast Plaza in Orange County, Southern California.

　　The collection, consisting of elegant crystal glass-topped tables, exemplifies the harmonious blend of artistic sophistication with environmental awareness.

　　The pieces are crafted using repurposed casting residual materials, employing green production methods that streamline manufacturing processes, minimize waste, and reduce carbon emissions.

　　“By incorporating green production methods, LIULI artworks achieve an impressive balance between traditional Chinese art, sustainability, and the reduction of our carbon footprint,“ said Loretta H. Yang, a renowned LIULI artist and founder of LIULI Crystal Art, in a recent interview with Xinhua.

　　“LIULI“ refers to a time-honored technique of ancient Chinese crystal glass craftsmanship. The glass's unique crystalline nature interacts with light, creating a dazzling contrast of shadow and illumination. The term “LIULI“ is derived from China's Han Dynasty (202 BC - 220 AD) and symbolizes the rich heritage of Chinese glass art.

　　At Bloomingdale's in South Coast Plaza, the LIULI collection is infused with vibrant colors, capturing the spirit of Chinese culture and offering a joyful and elegant experience to visitors.
