The Story

The Three Kingdoms Narrative Plate


Hand-Painted Blue & White Porcelain · Narrative Painting · Jingdezhen

For jewellery, keys, keepsakes, table styling, or simply as a collectible object

The Three Kingdoms Narrative Plate brings one of China's most enduring literary worlds onto porcelain. Inspired by an illustrated scene associated with Chapter 41 of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the composition translates the drama of classical Chinese storytelling into cobalt, brushwork and porcelain.

Layers of deep and pale cobalt create distance and depth, giving the monochrome composition an unexpectedly rich sense of movement. Originally conceived as a 壶承 (hucheng), a vessel used within traditional Chinese tea settings, JingTale gives the piece a new role — its generous 18.9 cm surface becomes a place for jewellery, watches, keys and keepsakes.

An ancient story, painted for the present.
Let the story live beyond the page.

Our Philosophy

Art should be lived with.

We create pieces meant to be used, cherished, and passed down—bringing beauty to the ordinary, every day.

Craft deserves context.

We honor tradition by placing each piece in dialogue with its origins, culture, and the hands that shape it.

Fewer, better things.

We believe in intention over impulse—creating in small numbers, with care, and with lasting meaning.

Our mission

We do not want these objects to remain beautiful things from another culture, admired only from a distance. We want them to live with you.

We felt that sense of calm and strength ourselves. Our mission is to pass a little of it on.

Through thoughtful curation, cultural storytelling and new ways of using traditional forms, we hope to build a bridge between Jingdezhen and contemporary life around the world — allowing every piece to carry its history forward while finding a new purpose, a new ritual and, eventually, a new story with you.
