罗中彤(Luo Zhongtong)&陈麒(Chen Qi)

We’re Luo Zhongtong and Chen Qi — partners in life and in craft, from Xinyang, Henan. Together we founded TriFire Studio, named for the fires that keep us alive — the kiln we tend, the sun and the moon we follow, and the small flame of hope we share. Chen Qi mixes the glazes and controls the firing; I, Zhongtong, hand-color and carve each piece. We design together — our ideas often collide, shift, and merge in the process, until earth, color, and rhythm find their balance. Every vessel takes hours, touched by patience and breath, fired at 1240°C where clay and fire meet. Our inspiration comes from the Yangshao culture — its ancient pottery, its quiet rhythm. We don’t copy history; we let it live again in modern life. That spirit flows through our main series: Earthen Floral, Shadow Floral, and Ancient Fruit. What matters most to us isn’t awards or shows, but when someone holds one of our works and feels that calm, handmade warmth — like a small fire glowing in their everyday life.
