“What should I give for Mid-Autumn Festival?”
We asked three collectors and design lovers from different backgrounds. They shared not only their reasons behind choosing porcelain gifts, but also how white porcelain pieces from NewChi Porcelain express heartfelt blessings during this meaningful season.
🏮 For the Ones Who Matter Most: Choosing a Gift of Qi and Meaning for Mid-Autumn
Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the most culturally significant holidays in East Asia. It’s not just a time for mooncakes and lanterns—but a heartfelt moment of connection between family, friends, and business partners.
For NewChi customers, Mid-Autumn gifting is never just a formality—it’s a ritual of intention, appreciation, and grace. A porcelain piece becomes a vessel for blessings, a symbol of relationship, and a reflection of taste.
From our observations, customers who choose high-end porcelain gifts during the festival usually consider three key aspects:
-
Whether the design aligns with their aesthetic values
-
Whether the symbolism resonates with a meaningful life milestone (new home, promotion, new partnership)
-
Whether the piece holds both cultural value and practical use
So this article isn’t just another “Mid-Autumn Gift Guide.” It’s a story told through the eyes of three real givers—how they used porcelain to convey the truest expressions of meaning and connection.
🎁 Recommendation 1: A Gift of Blessings for a New Home｜Blissful Autumn
“I wanted to give something meaningful and sculptural—something they could place in their home for years, and something that conveys lasting blessings.” — Ms. Cheng
Ms. Cheng is a design-savvy friend who enjoys creating ceramics in her spare time. This Mid-Autumn, she chose Blissful Autumn as a gift for a close friend who had just moved into a new home.
Blissful Autumn is part of NewChi’s “Seasonal Abundance” series, representing the spirit of autumn. Inspired by the fullness of harvest, both the teapot and cups feature gourd-like forms symbolizing “happiness and prosperity” in Chinese culture. The smooth, rounded silhouette blends traditional auspicious motifs with modern minimalism—playful, refined, and full of warmth.
She notes:
“The clean, modern lines fit beautifully in a contemporary home. The gourd shape feels festive and symbolic—every time my friend sees it, it reminds her of the joy of settling into her new place.”
As a ceramic enthusiast, Ms. Cheng also appreciated the craftsmanship behind the proportions and kiln process:
“This is not just a cute display object. It’s a genuine work of contemporary art with spirit and presence.”

🐟 Recommendation 2: A Gesture of Appreciation to a Business Partner｜Bounty
“This gift isn’t just for the season—it’s a way to recognize a partner’s hard work and celebrate new beginnings.” — Chairman Wang
In business, Mid-Autumn is an ideal time to express gratitude and strengthen partnerships. Chairman Wang recently selected Bounty as a Mid-Autumn gift for a corporate partner who had just moved into a new office.
Bounty is a porcelain fruit plate that combines symbolism and practicality. The full, round plate above represents a fruitful harvest, while the base features sculpted waves and a small fish swimming upstream—evoking ambition, drive, and prosperity.
“This piece carries a wish for abundance, and a recognition of all the effort that went into success,” he said. “Choosing Bounty lets me say: I respect your work and look forward to us achieving more together.”

🌏 Recommendation 3: A Cultural Gift for Overseas Friends｜Cloudlike Flows
“Mid-Autumn is about sharing reunion and connection. I wanted a piece that reflects both culture and design—to share that meaning with friends abroad.” — Ms. Olivia
Every year during Mid-Autumn, Ms. Olivia sends thoughtful gifts to international friends and partners. This year, she chose Cloudlike Flows.
A porcelain fruit plate that marries Eastern elegance with contemporary geometry, Cloudlike Flows is formed in a perfect circle—a symbol of unity and harmony. Both the plate and base are carved with cloud motifs, suggesting the flow of affection and enduring relationships. Its proportions are generous and bold, making it a centerpiece that speaks subtly of culture and grace.
“The cloud pattern represents our friendship—like water, flowing and lasting,” she said. “It’s a gift that says: I value you, and I cherish our connection.”
