Our Story

A market under the moon,
for Chinese craft.

Moonmarket began with a simple idea: bring the warmth of Chinese daily rituals, festivals, and handmade objects into modern homes around the world.

Born from a love of the everyday.

We believe that the most beautiful objects are the ones you use every day — the cup you pour your morning tea into, the incense you light to shift the mood of a room, the paper lantern you hang for a festival.

Our founder, Lin Yue, spent years traveling between Jingdezhen’s ceramic kilns, the tea mountains of Fujian, and local village markets. She noticed that these deeply rooted crafts were often treated as museum pieces, rather than living traditions.

Moonmarket was created to bridge that gap — to find objects that are rooted in Chinese heritage but feel perfectly at home in a modern apartment, anywhere in the world.

"Good craft is honest. It carries the trace of the hands that made it."
Lin Yue, Founder

In conversation with makers.

We don’t just buy wholesale. We sit down with tea growers, ceramic artists, paper workshops, and folk artisans to understand their processes, their materials, and their stories.

By working directly with these makers, we ensure that every piece is authentic, fairly sourced, and of the highest quality. When you buy from Moonmarket, you’re not just buying an object — you’re supporting a lineage of craft that has been passed down through generations.

What we look for

Every object should feel honest, useful, and connected to Chinese craft.

Origin

Made in China, with traceable makers and workshops. We know exactly where our objects come from.

Craft

Handmade details, traditional techniques, and a focus on modern use. We value the imperfections that come with human hands.

Everyday ritual

Objects made to be used, not only displayed. We want our pieces to bring a moment of mindfulness to your daily routine.

Cultural respect

Stories told with care, not clichés. We honor the traditions behind each object and share their context authentically.
