Huang Yan is a ceramic artist based in Jingdezhen. Every piece she creates embodies her quiet, refined aesthetic pursuit and a state of harmony between mind and hand, all under a simple exterior.

Huang Yan’s works are characterized by clean lines and pure tones—the soft, elegant white that she uniquely crafts seems to possess a living warmth. She uses a dipping technique for glazing, leaving natural traces of glaze flow on the surface of her pieces. She then adds subtle dark accents in certain areas, injecting a hint of lively energy into the pure white. Huang Yan values the tactile sensation of clay and preserves interesting moments during the hand-throwing process in her final works.

We appreciate the tranquility that Huang Yan’s pieces bring to the tea stage. The emptiness embodied by these white ceramics reflects the tea brewer’s state of mind like a mirror.
