Description
"Originating from a Chinese book dated to the Northern Qi dynasty (6th century C.E.), Japanese “gyokusai” translates to shattered jewel: “ People of great strength would rather shatter like a jewel into a myriad of fragments, than to live their life as idle and unbroken as a rooftile.” Worked into countless legends, novels, poems, mangas, animes, this Eastern motif has a soulmate in the West: “The light that burns the brightest, burns the shortest.” And whereever there’s a shattered jewel or a light that burns the brightest, there’s a story: And stories is what gyokusai is all about."
