三彩环艺《国脉》将中国地形地图和以洛阳为中心的隋唐大运河宛若游龙盘桓在中华大地之上为设计构思，由四千多个三彩“波·船”陶瓷件上下排列组合而成。圆弧上拱如水波，圆弧下压如航船，“波·船”之上，流淌的水纹波光粼粼，行进的航船扬帆起航，“中国大运河”世界遗产点星罗棋布，而中央最大的圆代表的就是隋唐运河中心古都“洛阳”。这些元素完美阐述了运河的功能属性，并以三彩釉色空混的效果把地形地貌呈现出来，以此衬托以金属浮雕工艺勾勒的隋唐大运河连通南北东西所描绘的作为“国脉”的宏伟史诗。

The design concept of Sancai art work "The National Vein" is based on the Sui and Tang Dynasty Grand Canal, centered on Luoyang, which is like a dragon hovering over the Chinese land. The arcs are arched like water waves, and the arcs are pressed down like boats, above the "Wave·Boat", the flowing water patterns are sparkling, the boats are sailing, and the world heritage sites of the Grand Canal of China are scattered, and the largest circle in the center represents the ancient capital: Luoyang, the center of the Sui and Tang Canal. The design concept of Sancai art work "Pulse of Nation" is based on the Sui and Tang Dynasty Grand Canal, centered on Luoyang, which is like a dragon hovering over the Chinese land. The arcs are arched like water waves, and the arcs are pressed down like boats, above the "waves-boats", the flowing water patterns are sparkling, the boats are sailing, and the world heritage sites of the Grand Canal of China are scattered, and the largest circle in the center represents the ancient capital: Luoyang, the center of the Sui and Tang Canal. These elements perfectly illustrate the functional attributes of the canal and present the topography in a Sancai glaze blending effect, thus supporting the grand epic of the Sui Tang Grand Canal as the "national artery" as outlined by the metal relief process that connects north, south, east and west.
