Chinese Tradition

Step into the timeless world of Ru Celadon (雨过天青云破处) — a rare and treasured form of Chinese porcelain famed for its delicate blue-green glaze that evokes the colour of the sky after rain. In this video, watch skilled artisans in rural China breathe life into this ancient craft, shaping each piece with reverence and precision.

For viewers in New Zealand, this isn't just a glimpse into another culture — it's an invitation to reconnect with the value of handmade artistry and cultural storytelling. As Kiwis increasingly embrace heritage design, slow living, and artisan homewares, Ru Celadon offers an inspiring alternative to mass-produced ceramics.

New Zealand interior designers, collectors, and potters are finding new appreciation for the soft serenity and minimalist beauty of celadon pottery — especially as it aligns with both Japanese wabi-sabi and Scandinavian simplicity, two trends deeply embedded in the NZ design scene. Whether displayed in a Waiheke Island gallery or used in a Dunedin kitchen, Ru Celadon brings global depth and cultural richness to local living spaces.

This video connects:

Kiwi potters and ceramic artists curious about global glaze techniques

Interior stylists seeking unique pieces with cultural authenticity

NZ collectors drawn to historical significance and fine craftsmanship

Educators and students of Asian art and traditional techniques

Let the colour of the post-rain sky — and the legacy of celadon — inspire a more intentional, artistic way of living in Aotearoa.
