Porcelain - 瓷 (Cí)

Its slightly porous body lends an honest, tactile quality — each piece bearing the subtle marks of the maker's hand and the earth from which it came. Born from the ancient mastery of 瓷 (Cí), porcelain embodies precision, refinement, and restraint. Where earthenware speaks of the earth, porcelain speaks of transformation — raw clay elevated through fire into something closer to glass than stone.
