The Studio specialises in the restoration of decorative ridges in traditional Chinese architecture. Participants will be guided around the pottery production area (including the kiln), followed by a glazing workshop with traditional Shiwan techniques. Master HE would also share his journey and experience in restoration of Shiwan ridges, and participants will get the chance to communicate and exchange knowledge with him.

Miao Ling Gong （妙靈宮）is a one of the oldest temples in Xiao Lan (小欖), which history could be dated back to the 1630s. The Temple has several elaborated decorative ridges, which had been restored by the Ju Cheng Tao Wu in 2020. Interestingly, the design of the decorative ridges had also included some local stories and characteristics of Xian Lan instead of solely featuring auspicious patterns, literature, history and novel stories.
