Yuet Tung China Works is Hong Kong’s first and last hand-painted porcelain factory. For over 90 years, it has specialized in painting Guangcai porcelain, a 300-year-old craft unique to Guangzhou Province. We visited Joseph Tso, the third-generation owner of Yuet Tung to learn more about what makes the art so unique, and what it takes to run his family business.
