Rooted in Shaanxi craft, made for the world

YIHE HANDCRAFTS carries time-tested hand techniques from Shaanxi into contemporary design. Our mission is to connect authentic Chinese craftsmanship with global markets, sustaining rural artisan livelihoods and regional material culture. Our vision is a respected, transparent bridge between makers and the people who use their work.

In Shaanxi, wheat straw and rush straw have long been shaped by hand into everyday objects and decorative forms. These techniques pass from one generation to the next, carrying the rhythm of local seasons and the materials the land provides.

Each piece keeps visible traces of its making: the spacing of a weave, the give of a fiber, the choice of a natural tone. We treat that character as part of the story, not something to hide.

We work with artisan households and manufacturing partners across the Shaanxi region. Our relationships are built on clear communication, fair expectations, and respect for the time each piece takes to make.

Production planning is shared openly, so buyers understand how a collection is made and who makes it.

Authentic craftsmanship means keeping traditional techniques intact while meeting the practical needs of today's buyers. We support the regional material culture that makes this work possible, from sourcing natural fibers to sustaining the livelihoods of the people who weave them.
