Product's Story

Hand-painted Blue and White Kingfisher Covered Bowl by Master Shi Laizhong

There are two kinds of objects—one is created for use, the other endures with time.

This blue and white covered bowl belongs to the latter.

Painted by Master Shi Laizhong, a leading figure in contemporary Jingdezhen blue and white porcelain art.

Each piece is handmade, with no two alike.

When porcelain becomes painting

Inheriting the lineage of Wang Bu, the "King of Blue and White Porcelain,"

Shi Laizhong has dedicated decades to a painting method that is extremely difficult to control—reverse water separation.

First, the cobalt blue pigment flows naturally, then lines are used to define its shape.

It is not depiction, but creation;

It is not a pattern, but a spirit.

The kingfisher appears and disappears, floating lightly,

like ink frozen on the porcelain body.

The Beauty of Material and Restraint
Selected from original cobalt blue pigments and delicate porcelain body, it presents a restrained yet profound layering:

• A single stroke creates variations in shade

• A soft luster, understated yet captivating

• A warm and substantial form, yet not bulky

Nothing is superfluous, no stroke is careless.

A Vessel of Time

It is more than just a tea ware.

It is also:

A sense of ritual in daily use

A focal point in spatial display

A personal collection that matures over time

Carrying the centuries-old lineage of blue and white porcelain, while simultaneously presenting restraint and sophistication within the contemporary aesthetic context.

Collecting, not buying

Owning it is not about possessing an object,

but about entering into a continuation of time, craftsmanship, and aesthetics.

Usable, collectible,

and a legacy to be passed down through generations.
