The Tang Dynasty (6 18-970) is regarded as a great period in China's art history. Ceramic technology has been greatly improved, and a large number of fine porcelain varieties have appeared, which means that it can be regarded as real high-quality porcelain according to today's appraisal standards. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the hero was taken by surprise, followed by a dynasty struggle, that is, the Five Dynasties, which lasted until 960 AD. However, a new ceramic variety ── Chai Kiln Porcelain (Xiao Kiln) appeared in the wartime. Its excellent texture is widely praised, but it is extremely rare to pass on from generation to generation.
In Song Dynasty (960── 1279), the ceramic industry flourished and began to export to Europe and Southeast Asian countries. Famous kilns with their own characteristics, such as Jun kilns, Ru kilns, official kilns, Ge kilns and folk kilns, have sprung up all over the country, and their products are becoming more and more colorful.
In A.D. 1280, the Yuan Dynasty was established and Shufu Kiln appeared. Jingdezhen began to become the center of China ceramic industry, and its reputation spread all over the world. The white porcelain produced in Jingdezhen is in sharp contrast with the underglaze blue ornamentation. Since then, blue and white porcelain culture has been deeply loved by people in various historical periods.
The Ming Dynasty ruled from 1368 to 1644. During this period, Jingdezhen's ceramic manufacturing industry ranked first in the world, occupying a prominent position in the technical and artistic level, especially blue and white porcelain reached its peak. In addition, Dehua kiln in Fujian, Longquan kiln in Zhejiang and Cizhou kiln in Hebei are also famous for their different styles of high-quality ceramics.
