Jinlong Kiln Introduction
Jinlong Kiln started its journey with traditional pottery. It primarily produces ceramic items such as wine jars, water tanks, flower vases, and functional pottery. Established over twenty years ago, the kiln was founded by Mr. Li Yiwu, who crossed the sea from Fuzhou to Taiwan. The second generation, consisting of brothers Li Mingru, Li Zhaoqing, and Li Zhaochun, continued the legacy, and now the third generation, brothers Li Jinming and Li Rongguo, have taken over. They still adhere to tradition, focusing on hand-throwing and shaping as their main products. In the 1960s, the decorative ceramic industry emerged, which nearly replaced traditional pottery. In recent years, due to the impact of industrial transformation, traditional pottery has struggled to find space for survival. To achieve sustainable operation of the family pottery business, Jinlong Kiln has sought breakthroughs and innovations. Originally specializing in traditional water tanks and wine jars, the kiln has now transitioned to creating modern and aesthetically pleasing lotus flower tanks and has incorporated unique Hakka design elements into tableware and beautiful ceramic lamps. In this beautiful garden located deep in the mountains, visitors can personally experience the joy of working with clay. Through hand-throwing or hand-building pottery, they can understand the traditional pottery-making process and create a unique piece of ceramic art.
