Beaufort 系列陶瓷甕的設計靈感，源自殖民時期威廉斯堡歷史區總督官邸中，一張綠色漆飾床架上那精緻細膩的凹槽甕形柱飾。這張床架的頂部裝飾與柱頭設計，承襲自赫普爾懷特（Hepplewhite）筆下的經典「威尼斯式」床架風格。
 

甕身所採用的綠色，正是當年英國皇家總督 Lord Botetourt 於1768年至1770年間居住官邸時，所偏愛的家具配色，展現出一份歷史的典雅韻味。更為動人的是，Botetourt 勳爵的妹妹即為第四任 Beaufort 公爵夫人，其座落於英格蘭的莊園 Badminton，更被譽為當時英國最典雅華麗的鄉村宅邸之一。
 

這樣深厚的歷史與文化底蘊，為 Beaufort 系列注入無可比擬的優雅氣息，使每一件作品不僅是器物，更是跨越時空的藝術對話。

The Beaufort collection of ceramic urns was inspired by the fluted urn-shaped finials that crown a green japanned bedstead in the Governor′s Palace in Colonial Williamsburg′s Historic Area. The cornice and finials for the bed are based on a Hepplewhite design for a "Venetian" bedstead. The green color represents the Palace furnishings of Lord Botetourt, British royal governor of Virginia, who lived there from 1768 to 1770. Botetourt′s sister was the 4th Duchess of Beaufort, whose country seat, Badminton, was one of the most elegantly furnished country houses in England.
