This Designer Turns Mud Into Beautiful Porcelain Jewellery Pieces

Designer Kay Jiaqi Zhou from POPORCELAIN creates stunning jewellery pieces by turning mud into beautiful porcelain rings, earrings and necklaces.

All the jewellery is handmade from porcelain clay and 14k gold-filled or gold-plated elements.

“POPORCELAIN is not about diamonds or gem stones; it's about earth that has been dug from the ground. After a long journey of design, experimenting, handcrafting, firing and assembling, it miraculously becomes a piece of delicate and desirable porcelain jewellery. Every piece of porcelain has experienced more than 10 hours of kiln firing, with temperatures reaching over 1200°C. Most of them need to be fired twice or even three times. Along with the sketching, crafting, cooling, polishing and assembling, producing the final finished piece is extremely time-consuming. Every piece is unique in shape and no two are exactly the same.”
