About Happiness Aðalhlutverk: Nisti, Hengiskraut
Bókartexti: Hamingja er skartgripur sem hægt er að bera sem nisti eða sem hengiskraut. Hönnunin sýnir skjór við hlið bambus, tvö minni sem tengjast í austurlenskri menningu við gæfu og göfugt eðli. Skjórinn er gerður með hefðbundinni klasónatækni (cloisonné), sem gefur fuglinum ríkulega liti og áferð. Bambusinn er gerður úr gulli og silfri og er settur demöntum og smaragði. Hvert skref er unnið í höndunum, þar á meðal víravirki, glerjun, endurtekinn bruni við hátt hitastig og slípun. Tilgangurinn er að flytja hefðbundna handverkslist inn í nútímalegan skartgrip.
