These larger jian shui are made by Luo Wei (羅偉) here in Taiwan using clay from our own Miaoli county which has a long history with clay and pottery. There will be slight variations in the color and shape of each jian shui as these are handmade. We will do our best to choose a jian shui that best matches the example on the website. These are made by the same artist who produces our Forest and Meadow bowls. The larger size and shape is perfect for a bowl tea ceremony.

These handmade jian shui hold approximately 1L.

The Artisan

Luo Wei 羅偉

Luo Wei (羅偉) was born in Kaohsiung in 1975 and began his apprenticeship at the Gangshan Pottery Studio in 1996. In 2015 he and his wife founded their studio, Qi Tao Lang (砌陶郎), now in Sanyi, Miaoli, where the local iron-rich red clay finds its way into his work. Early in his career he realized that only work made with feeling carries a soul, so he set aside showy technique in favor of a slower conversation with the clay. His glazes range from quiet natural wood ash to free-spirited shino and the warm, jade-like glow of Ru ware.
