Handmade China Crafts on the YueFetch Shelf — Stock 1, Real Photos

Most “handmade from China” listings online are a mood board with a shopping cart.

We sell the other kind: stock often 1, studio photo of the exact piece, packed from Huizhou / Shenzhen after you pay. Typical dispatch is about 7–15 business days after the parcel leaves Guangdong — estimate, not a prophecy. No AI lifestyle renders pretending to be the SKU. If the photo looks too pretty to be true — it is still the unit. Check stock before you fall in love.

This note is a shelf tour of what is live on YueFetch right now — leather journals, tin-lid tea stands, painted porcelain, name seals — plus how to buy when the piece you want is not listed yet.

What “handmade” means here (boring definition)

• A person carved, tooled, painted, or stitched this piece — not a carton of identical factory blanks with a sticker
• Listing photo ≈ inventory when stock is 1
• We photo-QC before export when timing allows
• Freight is payment 2 after weigh — not a free-shipping fairy tale
• Counterfeit logos are a hard no

If you need something that is not on the shelf, that is Custom Source / WhatsApp — same Guangdong desk, different SKU.

Leather journals (cultural shelf)

The mint magnolia pearl leather ring journal is a 6-hole binder with a mint cover, magnolia tooling, and a pearl-style charm. Stock 1. The rings open; refill pages are normal A6-style inserts, not magic paper from a museum gift shop.

We also list other tooled / embroidered leather covers under handmade crafts — roses, butterflies, jeweled clasps. Same rule: when stock says 1, that photo is the book.

Tea table: tin lids and chaxi

A hucheng is a shallow teapot stand. A jianshui takes rinse water and spent leaves. Both can wear a carved tin lid over a ceramic (or lacquer) body — the kind of desk sculpture that still does a wet job.

We published a full walkthrough in tin-lid hucheng & jianshui. The short version: tea category has stock-1 tin pieces plus embroidered / leather chaxi (tea mat runners). Real photos. Freight after weigh.

Porcelain that is allowed to be uneven

Fairness cups, master cups, linglong translucent ware, mountain breakfast plates — under ceramics. Many are one of a kind or small stock. Hand-painted means the lady on the cup may not match her twin in the next photo. That is the point.

Name seals (carved after you confirm)

Custom Chinese name seals — pink stone, jade-style, sandalwood resin crowns — sit on the cultural shelf. You send engraving text (Chinese characters, English name, short motto). We confirm layout before the stone gets cut. Not a luxury seal-house brand; studio craft from China makers.
