Golden Dragon Kiln Introduction
Jinlong Kiln started with traditional ceramics, primarily producing wine jars, water tanks, flower vases, and daily pottery. Established over twenty years ago, it was founded by Mr. Li Yiwu, who came from Fuzhou to Taiwan. The second generation, brothers Li Mingrui, Li Zhaoqing, and Li Zhaochun, continued the business, which is now in the third generation with Li Jinming and Li Rongguo. They maintain a focus on traditional craftsmanship, emphasizing hand-turned clay and shapes as their main products. In the 1960s, the decorative ceramics industry emerged, almost replacing traditional pottery. In recent years, with the impact of industrial transformation, traditional ceramics have struggled to find a place in the market. To ensure the sustainable operation of the century-old family kiln, Jinlong Kiln has sought breakthroughs and innovations. They have transitioned to create modern and appealing lotus-shaped tanks and introduced dishes and beautiful ceramic lamps with distinctive Hakka elements. In this beautiful garden located in the mountains, visitors can personally experience the joy of working with clay. Through hand-throwing or hand-molding pottery, they can understand the traditional pottery-making process and create a unique piece of ceramics.
