“巧夺天工凭妙手，石湾该是美陶湾”。大文豪郭沫若曾挥毫题诗，盛赞“石湾陶艺”之美。“石湾陶”是佛山的一张重要文化名片和一个独特的城市标识，它浓缩着佛山发展的文脉根基。
"All acme of artistic perfection comes from great craftsmanship. Shiwan is home to beautiful ceramics." Thats how Guo Moruo, a Chinese literato, commented on Shiwan ceramics. To this date, ceramic art from this thousand-year-old town has always been regarded as an icon that well represents the city itself, as an essential part of profound local culture.
近日，石湾陶艺跨界融合发展又有新动作，一起来新石湾美陶厂看看吧！
Recently, Shiwan Town has sought new growth patterns through cooperation across industries. Lets take a look at New Shiwan Art Ceramics Factory.
美陶与文创，亮点十足
New sensation: ceramic works presented in a cultural creative way
一楼的文创展览馆，以砖红色为主色调，将龙窑、窑火、砖块等陶瓷烧制元素浓缩进了小小的展厅当中，复古感十足！On the first floor, Cultural and Creative Exhibition Hall uses red as the theme color, gathering all key elements involved in firing process in a tiny room, such as Dragon Kiln, fire and bricks. It goes all the way back.
展厅内各式各样的陶瓷文创产品格外吸睛。陶瓷醒狮墙创意新颖，气势十足。陶瓷储物罐、陶瓷茶壶茶杯，颜色鲜艳，造型可爱，放在家中美观又实用。买一个带回家也是个不错的选择呢！
Inside the hall, there are tons of cultural and creative products, which easily catch peoples attention. Theres a wall of "dancing lion" potteries, looking massively epic. Other than that, jar containers, teapots and cups are also unique in shape and color, which can be put in good use at home. Why not take one home?
另外，该店已开通了淘宝、京东、微店等网络旗舰店，还在近年大热的抖音、快手等短视频平台开通账号，让石湾陶艺能够通过新媒体渠道广泛传播。
In addition, online stores have also been opened on multiple platforms, including Taobao, JD and Weidian. In recent years, Shiwan ceramics has gone on mainstream video platforms like Tiktok and Kwai, paving modern ways where local ceramic arts spread across China.
美陶＋家居：现代陶艺与家居的和谐共生
New harmony: ceramic elements fused with home design
以“创意家居”为主题，展厅在融合家居方面很有看点。成套的陶瓷桌椅，散发着清新雅致的独特气息；欧式风格的家居与石湾传统陶塑搭配融合，实现了一种别样的和谐之美。
Themed on "Home Furnishing with Creativity", the exhibition hall also gives presentation on how ceramic arts can be well combined with home furnishing. Whole sets of ceramic tables and chairs look gorgeous like nothing else. When European-style home design meets traditional pottery art in Shiwan, a unique harmony is achieved, a touch of coexistence.
