About CIWU

CIWU is a curated platform that brings Jingdezhen’s finest independent pottery artists to homes worldwide. Every piece in our collection is handcrafted — no mass production, no shortcuts.

Jingdezhen: A Thousand Years of Craft

For over 1,000 years, Jingdezhen has been the heart of Chinese ceramics. Today, a new generation of independent artists is redefining what pottery means — blending tradition with personal expression, imperfection with intention.

Independent Artists, Not Factories

We partner directly with independent pottery studios — no middlemen, no warehouses of identical pieces. Each artist brings their own voice:

  • YIHE Studio — Ceramic jewelry that carries meaning. Pendants, brooches, and earrings inspired by nature and mythology.
  • My Little Clay — Pottery that glows. Candle holders and ambient lights that turn any room into a sanctuary.
  • ZI XUN — Stoneware for the ritual of slow living. Teaware and vessels with quiet precision.

Wabi-Sabi: The Beauty of Imperfection

We embrace the philosophy of wabi-sabi — finding beauty in the imperfect, the handmade, the one-of-a-kind. No two pieces are exactly alike, and that’s the point.
