Brooch · White porcelain
The Running Rabbit
Caught mid-leap, ears swept back, a single freshwater pearl swinging from its paw. The piece that has come to stand for YIHE.
Jingdezhen, China · Porcelain Capital
Kiln fire and nature, made to be worn.
YIHE is a ceramic jewelry studio in Jingdezhen. We shape white porcelain into rabbits, foxes, snakes, moths and leaves — glazed, gilded by hand, and fired above 1240°C — so a piece of the natural world can be worn every day.

Signature pieces
Three pieces that carry the name
The designs collectors ask for by name — each one drawn from the animals and plants around the studio.
Pin brooch · Hand-painted gold
Meihu
A white rabbit head with long upright ears, eyes closed, gold lines painted by hand after firing. Designed in 2023 and registered as an original work.
Necklace · Iridescent glaze
White Snake
An iridescent white snake coiled through layered silver chains. The glaze shifts with the light — no two firings come out of the kiln the same.
The collection
Brooches, necklaces, rings & bracelets
A selection from the current range of more than 120 designs. Every piece is handmade in the studio; glaze and brushwork vary slightly from piece to piece — that is the mark of the hand, not a flaw.
Prices in USD as listed by VermilionCollection, our authorised Etsy partner. The full range is available in China through the YIHE VISION flagship store on Taobao.
From a lump of clay to a piece of jewelry
Three steps, all under one roof in Jingdezhen — the city that has fired porcelain for a thousand years.
1.
Forming
Each piece is formed by hand, with traditional moulds assisting the shapes hands alone can't repeat. Finished with freshwater pearls, jade, silver and gold plating.
2.
Glazing
Glazes are mixed in the studio. The iridescent finishes are colours gambled on the kiln — they only exist once the fire has had its say. Gold lines are painted by hand after firing.
3.
Firing
The porcelain body is high-fired above 1240°C. Only when the kiln opens do we know what this firing has made — one kiln, one colour, never exactly repeated.
White porcelain
A fine white body with a smooth, lustrous glaze — the ground everything else is built on.
Hand-painted gold
Gold lines drawn by hand on the fired piece. One wrong stroke cannot be undone.
Iridescent glaze
Colour that shifts with the light, different on every single piece that leaves the kiln.
Animal forms
Foxes, rabbits, snakes, rays and moths — nature you can pin to a coat or wear at the throat.
About
The maker
Yang Dongxu designs and makes every YIHE piece in Jingdezhen, China's porcelain capital. The studio has run for eleven years with a single focus: turning porcelain — a material most people keep on a shelf — into jewelry that can be worn every day.
The work is naturalist in spirit. Animals and plants seen up close become brooches, pendants, rings and bracelets, finished with pearls, jade, silver and gold. Alongside the bench, Yang also works in photography and video — every product photograph on this page was shot in the studio.
