In the tranquil valleys of Nixi township, Shangri-La, Yunnan province, artisans have kept the ancient craft of black pottery alive for over two thousand years. Made by hand and smoke-fired without glaze, each piece reveals the raw beauty of clay — simple, sturdy, and full of soul.
From teapots to cookware, Nixi black pottery reflects the harmony between people and nature.
