"Ningzhou" was one of the most important kilns for 'celadon glaze' outside of Jingdezhen during the Ming Dynasty. The Ningzhou ceramics technique has been around since the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. The natural raw-migrate glaze is really smooth and richly coloured.

 

Pottery fired in a wood-fired kiln at 1,250 degrees Celsius using traditional techniques, combined with the soot and steam generated in the kiln, forms really beautiful patterns on the surface of the pottery, giving it a texture that can only be achieved in a wood-fired kiln. On the other hand, ceramics fired in gas kilns come out with really vibrant colours and a finish that's pretty unique, kind of like peacocks.

 

We hope you enjoy the unique patterns and colours that emerge from the multiple layers of elements, including the local materials and the changing kiln environment, backed up by the meticulous techniques used.
