Because I have dogs and cats at home, my obsession with animals led me to think: wouldn't it be wonderful to incorporate the animals I love into daily life, allowing art to be more than just something to be admired, but a companion for every day? Thus, I combine hand-painted artistry with porcelain, capturing the charm of cute, mischievous, and personality-filled animals on plates and mugs. Since establishing my studio in 2014, I have hand-painted over a thousand pieces. Every stroke is drawn by hand, making each piece unique, irreplaceable, and possessed of its own expression and story. In the future, I want to continue this journey of porcelain painting, drawing my love for animals into life and helping this small kingdom of animals reach further. **Starting with a single piece of porcelain, keep your favorite animals in your life.** https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51960408151_3c8d83bc60_z.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51960687694_ac70bf7604_z.jpg ## Custom Work Q&A **Q| How do I order a custom piece?** In addition to the original works in our shop, "Nien" offers custom animal porcelain painting services, transforming your cherished pets, animals, and memories into a piece of porcelain you can collect for years to come. Ordering Process: Send a private message to Nien with the photos you wish to be painted, the porcelain style, and your custom requirements. Discuss composition, text, and details with Nien to confirm the final design. Once confirmed, Nien will create a private order page. After placing the order, the production will be scheduled. It is recommended to provide clear, well-lit photos that show the animal's facial features, coat color, and characteristics so that Nien can capture their unique look in detail. **Q| How much does a custom piece cost?** Basic custom content includes: **One animal subject + decorative elements (flowers, butterflies, etc.) + custom text** Reference pricing: ・6-inch plate/mug | From NT$1,200 ・7-inch plate | From NT$1,500 ・8-inch plate | From NT$1,900 ・Adding a second animal to the same piece | From +NT$500 Special compositions, complex backgrounds, multiple animals, or other specific requests will be quoted individually based on the work involved. **Q| How long does production take?** Every piece is hand-painted by Nien. From composition and painting to firing for color fixation, each step takes time to complete slowly. General production time is approximately **14 working days or more**. Actual delivery time will vary based on current order volume and the complexity of the piece. If you have a birthday, anniversary, or specific gift-giving deadline, please send a private message to check the schedule before placing an order. **Q| How do I care for my porcelain pieces?** To keep your piece with you for longer, we recommend: ・Wash gently using a soft sponge and mild detergent. ・Avoid using scouring pads, steel wool, or abrasive cleaning products. ・Not recommended for use in dishwashers or microwaves. ・Avoid prolonged soaking or vigorous scrubbing of the painted surface. Careful use and preservation will maintain the color and texture of your hand-painted piece for a longer time. **Q| Are the paints used safe?** Nien uses German-made porcelain painting pigments. After completion, all pieces are fired to set the colors. As these hand-painted works are intended primarily as art and collectibles, it is recommended to avoid direct contact between the painted design and high-temperature food. Plates are recommended for use as **dessert plates, cold food plates, or home art decor**; they can also be displayed with a stand or as wall art. Every piece is not just a vessel, but a small painting that keeps a story for you. **Q| How are the porcelain pieces shipped?** Each piece is carefully wrapped before shipping, using cushioned packaging materials for full protection, and boxed in a manner suitable for fragile items to minimize the risk of impact and damage during transit. Items are shipped via courier to ensure they arrive safely to you. * Thank you to Cat's Life Magazine for the interview https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51959458687_933f7001a3_z.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51961027975_bc25138d01_z.jpg
