If you want to decorate your house with a unique style that will keep its elegance with every piece you purchase, you should consider a new accessory. The ancient art of pottery can represent a key element in everybody&acirc;€™s home. Pottery has developed along with history and that&acirc;€™s why it can tell an entire story just with a single piece. Not only that almost every pottery item will stand out because they are known to be expensive but they can add a certain symbolist expression to the whole room.


If you like the Asian ambiance and you have decorated your home in the peaceful, contemporary feng shui style you can improve this whole aspect. A plate or a Chinese vase will stand out in the whole room because of its colors and painted symbols. The colors they use the most are red, their traditional color of luck or the more classic combination of blue and white. The symbols painted on these precious pottery items have usually a cultural background and remind of customs, traditions and religious aspects. One of the most beloved symbols is the dragon. This legendary monster represents in the Chinese culture the divine power. Think about purchasing a vase or a plate painted with a dragon, because it stands for history, for customs, for your preferences and it may give the whole room a powerful feeling.



Decorate your house according to your likes but remember that through pottery you can express more. There is always more than the physical shape and appearance even though the esthetics is the one catching our eye. Put an entire story in the corner of your room and let the people admiring your home discover the mystery behind it. Pottery is not just an art; it is a well preserved symbol maintainer.

        <title>China Pottery for special Events</title>
        <link>http://www.chinapottery.org//c-china-pottery-for-special-events.html</link>
        <description><![CDATA[




China Pottery is usually associated with special events because on important occasion, you only want to use your best pottery pieces. This says a lot about your china pottery. It underlines its classy elegance which cannot be obtained with another type of pottery. China pottery is being used to impress and attract attention. It can have these results not only because it is more expensive, you can mainly show off with it because it is unique and of good quality. No wonder that everybody wants to have these important two aspects on a special day.


When you choose your china for your special day, you should probably know the differences in types. If you are Jewish, you will probably pick bone china. Bone china is a type of pottery made of bone ash. Do not imagine anything gross or taken from a horror movie. Bone china is made of animal bones, but in the process of fabrication, all organic matter is being destroyed and the bone is being purified. Bone china is therefore white and translucent but more decorations can be hand painted or other methods.



Another type is non-bone china which has as a basic element ivory. It is common knowledge that ivory is very expensive, rare and extremely beautiful. In the fabrication of this type or china pottery clay is used in very small amounts. This type of china is also white in color and very translucent and the glazes can be added afterwards. Porcelains are also very attractive when it comes to picking out pottery. The porcelain process does not include the same procedures are with bone and non-bone china. The main difference is that no heating is required and the body is matured together with the glaze. Even though this can add more strength to your pottery, the decoration designs do are not as beloved as with the other two types.


In conclusion, pick your china pottery carefully because it really stands for your taste and investment in your special day.

        <title>Chinese Porcelain, almost Impossible to Duplicate</title>
        <link>http://www.chinapottery.org//c-chinese-porcelain-almost-impossible-to-duplicate.html</link>
        <description><![CDATA[




The porcelain was discovered and used in China where the first European travelers have admired the white clear material. When they returned to Europe they also brought some pieces with them and so the Chinese porcelain commerce began. The request was too big compared with the offer, therefore the Europeans tried to figure out the secret of Chinese porcelain making. The main ingredient, the kaolin was discovered only in 1709 by Bottger and Von Tschirnhaus. This achievement convinced the king of Poland to open a porcelain factory in Meissen. Despite of all their efforts the Europeans could not reproduce an exact copy of the Chinese porcelain. This was a hard thing to do also because in China the porcelain designs and ways of manufacturing were in continuous development.


Depending on what dynasty had the power in China, the porcelain was fabricated and painted differently. The Han Dynasty used to color their Chinese porcelain with celadon and black but with no new methods of firing. Then during the Tang Dynasty things changed a little. Using brighter colors, amazing tones of white that was frequently compared with snows color the artisans living in that period thought more of esthetics than of the perfect firing or shaping processes. Followed by the Song Dynasty, its Emperor put more accents on kilns. The most famous kiln from that time was Jun from the Henan Province. In this kiln every piece of Chinese porcelain fabricated was meant to get in the hands of the royal family. No one else had the right to buy them. After the Yuan Dynasty took the throne, the fabulous white and blue Chinese porcelain has replaced the old one in the every Chinese home.



In our days almost every culture and tradition expresses itself through porcelain also. Besides China, now Mexico, Italy or United Kingdom also fabricate porcelain and porcelain is as appreciated as ever!

        <title>Chinese porcelain and Tea</title>
        <link>http://www.chinapottery.org//c-chinese-porcelain-and-tea.html</link>
        <description><![CDATA[





The ceramic is obtained from the combination of clay, kaolin and the quartz rock fired in specific ways. The technique and the art of porcelain manufacture is believed to have been first realized in China. Starting with the 6th century BC Chinese porcelain was exclusively fabricated for the China inhabitants who adopted this new type of art very quickly although it was not too affordable. Only the high and medium classes had access to it. Meanwhile the rest of the population was still using the old cheap pottery. After the year 1000 the secret of Chinese porcelain fabrication passed in Korea and Japan.



It might be considered that the Chinese porcelain was made famous by the tea drinking habit. The Chinese preferred to use small cups for tea serving. These were painted with dragons, phoenix birds, plant leafs, flowers and many other motifs. The Yixing tea cups and tea pots originated from Jiangsu Province were the most famous and appreciated pieces of Chinese porcelain during the Song Dynasty, more than 1000 years ago. The Song Dynasty had the most important role in the history of Chinese porcelain because between 960 and 1279 it has produced the finest, extremely expensive and rare Chinese porcelain, called Ru. There were also other types of Chinese porcelain: Jun, Guan, Ge and Ding. 	The Chinese Emperors brought into existence special factories for the production of exquisite Chinese porcelain for their palaces. Furthermore all the dishes, vessels, tea pots and tea cups from this period of time are considered to be rarities and true works of art, especially the blue and white Chinese porcelain.



Even nowadays people say that the best recipe or combination of materials needed for making porcelain can only be found in one place on earth: the town of Yixing situated 120 km west from Shanghai in the Jiangsu Province.

        <title>Chinese Porcelain creates Jian Tea Bowls</title>
        <link>http://www.chinapottery.org//c-chinese-porcelain-creates-jian-tea-bowls.html</link>
        <description><![CDATA[




The Chinese porcelain is a ware derivate from ceramics. The most skilled potters have taken the idea further and they tried different combinations of material in order to obtain a new type of mixture. For five centuries between 16th and 11th century BC, the artisans took time to make the perfect combination. The Chinese porcelain contained kaolin, pottery stone or petunse, feldspar and quartz. The firing method was very important too, so they build special kilns where they fired the Chinese porcelain pieces at low or high temperatures depending on which was the wanted result.


A famous piece of Chinese porcelain is the Jian Tea. In Fujian Province was a kiln named Jianyang where the tea bowls were fired. Jian Tea bowls had only the black color. When Song Dynasty leaded China the popularity of Jian Tea bowls increased. The artisans used a large quantity of iron in the mixture and fired the finished product at 1300 degrees Celsius. It is well known that a large quantity of iron makes the porcelain look black. The white Chinese porcelain ingredients were poor in iron. As for the glaze used for Jian Tea porcelain, it was made from the same type of clay utilized before plus ash from burned wood. This tea bowl has a half centimeter foot made of iron. Its walls were thick. This means that tea stayed warm longer which was another unique detail of Jian Tea bowls. It is believed that whenever tea has priority and it was not only a pretext for afternoon meetings, the Chinese people always used Jian Tea bowls instead of blue and white Chinese porcelain which was a mark of finesse.



A piece of this dish survived through time and it can now be admired at the Metropolitan Museum Of Art in New York.

People still serve tea from Chinese porcelain tea cups or deposit the tea in the Chinese teapots. Another piece that passes the test of time is the jewel box. Classy ladies use Chinese porcelain boxes to store their jewelry and protect them from dust or unwanted happenings. The Chinese porcelain also has a great success when it comes to decorating.

        <title>Chinese Porcelain through Time</title>
        <link>http://www.chinapottery.org//c-chinese-porcelain-through-time.html</link>
        <description><![CDATA[




The porcelain has a pleasant to touch texture, amazing colors and a delicate sculpture. Its surfaces are smooth and very precise build. It is believed that Chinese people have first produced this kind of art during the Shang Dynasty who lived between 16th and 11th century BC. The Chinese porcelain was more durable and luster comparing to pottery wares. The porcelain is also called fine china. The Chinese porcelain was available in many shapes that pottery pieces were never made: incense burners, jewelry cases, boxes for chess but also for every day use bowls, tea cups, regular cups and vases.


In Han Dynasty the dominant colors used for the Chinese porcelain were celadon which is a color similar to the color of jade and black. The Tang Dynasty had another vision of porcelain. Therefore they revolutionized its design. Brighter colors were used but also a kind of white that was described to be like snow. During the Song Dynasty, Emperor Huizong has forbidden anyone who was not part of the royal family to buy a certain Chinese porcelain made in the kiln of Jun no matter if they could afford it or not. The kiln of Jun was one of two famous kilns in the Henan Province. Stepping in the Yuan Dynasty we find only combinations of blue and white used for Chinese porcelain. The blue color was obtained from cobalt and covered with white glaze and clear glaze as a finishing touch. Another great change in colors happened when Emperor Kangxi had the power over the Chinese people. They used ochre, purple, emerald and magenta but the most appreciated was the rose porcelain.



Now, after 4000 years of experience, Chinese porcelain is still a mark of style and people from middle and high classes own at least one piece.

        <title>From Grey to White Chinese Porcelain</title>
        <link>http://www.chinapottery.org//c-from-grey-to-white-chinese-porcelain.html</link>
        <description><![CDATA[




Also called fine china, the Chinese porcelain it is a descendent of the grey porcelain. The grey porcelain is a product fabricated in the transition period from ceramics to porcelain. This product has porcelain features but also remains from ceramics. The first vessels made from grey porcelain were found in the Zhejiang Province located in the south east area of China, more than 4200 years ago.


But the real Chinese porcelain appeared during the Han Dynasty in the east of Zhejiang Province. After that the making technique of the Chinese porcelain extended from south to north where it achieved great development. Derivate from the grey porcelain, the white Chinese porcelain contains a smaller amount of iron which makes it whiter than ceramics. At the beginning the Chinese porcelain was monochromatic but with time the Chinese introduced new colors in the designs. The white and blue Chinese porcelain was the killer piece.



The assembling process continued to modernize between the 10th and 13th century when Tang and Song dynasties leaded China. The representative piece of Chinese porcelain made by Tang Dynasty artisans was the three colored piece containing red, green and white. When fired in the kiln the colors mixed and the result was similar with the traditional paintings. Ming and Qing dynasties produced the biggest amount of Chinese porcelain that had the best quality so far. Jingdezhen town is considered the capital of Chinese porcelain making. The most beautiful Chinese porcelain was and is produced here.


In the 8th century the Chinese began to commercialize their porcelain. It was known as the porcelain country. The Asian countries capitalized on the Chinese porcelain first, followed by European countries. In the 17th century when rococo was in trends, China exported 200 thousand pieces of Chinese porcelain a year and in the 18th century over one million pieces.

        <title>From Nephrite to Chinese Porcelain</title>
        <link>http://www.chinapottery.org//c-from-nephrite-to-chinese-porcelain.html</link>
        <description><![CDATA[




More than one thousand years ago in China people used greenstone cups. These cups made out of nephrite were very expensive. After years and years of research the Chinese potters managed to find a combination of materials that overtook the ax stone also called jade. This new invention was named porcelain. The Chinese porcelain was not that expensive as the jade and it was easier to work with.


For a long time though, when people referred to the Chinese porcelain, they called it jade imitation. The secret of porcelain stone was a combination of two rocks: isinglass and quartz. On top of that for giving a white color to the Chinese porcelain they used kaolin in the mixture.



During the Sung Dynasty the development of the Chinese porcelain flourished. Hundred thousand people were hired at that time. Some of them just washed the clay and some of them were watching over the kilns temperature. A kiln was so big that 25 thousand pieces of Chinese porcelain fitted inside. The Chinese porcelain during this period was shaped simple because the artisans were in a continuous search of the perfect material. Colors like red, violet, blue and green were used for decoration.


Stepping into the Ming Dynasty we find designs similar with the ones from Sung Dynasty. United Kingdom museums have in possession the oldest tea cup from this age. Thin walls almost clean and incredible finesse are some of the features of Chinese porcelain pieces. True works of art, the Chinese porcelain pieces were not only shaped as dishes but also as musical instruments. A touch with a stick on a wall produced a melodic sound. The royal family received every year 16 thousand plates, 18 thousand cups and 31 thousand large plates. They even build Pagoda Nanking in 1415 which is an aedicule made completely out of Chinese porcelain.

        <title>Taking Care of our Chinese Porcelain</title>
        <link>http://www.chinapottery.org//c-taking-care-of-our-chinese-porcelain.html</link>
        <description><![CDATA[




You might be surprised but the most common way the Chinese porcelain pieces get destroyed it is human awkwardness and carelessness. The Chinese porcelain is stabile when it comes in contact with changes of temperature, light or humidity. It is considered to be very easy to take care of Chinese porcelain. You must be careful tough because extreme temperatures have a ruining effect on the Chinese porcelain especially unexpected temperature changes. Higher temperatures are more dangerous than the lower ones. When a piece of Chinese porcelain is exposed to heat, the glaze applied on porcelain tends to peel. Also it is a higher risk of breaking or cracking our beautiful dishes. Another caution you must be aware of is that if you put a Chinese porcelain plate into really cold water you expose it to a thermo shock and it might crack or break.


If you have a blue and white piece of Chinese porcelain or another one that has dark colors on it you must be extra careful because no powerful source of light must be facing it. Excessive heat might cause harm to your Chinese porcelain especially the dark painted one because it is known that dark colors absorb heat.



Low temperatures are not safe either. Do not put any plate or cup made from Chinese porcelain into the fridge or deposit them in a room with high humidity. This means over 65% humidity can crack or break your Chinese porcelain because of the crystals it contains. Furthermore humidity over 65% encourages the occurrence of mould, bacterium and fungus. These leave marks on your Chinese porcelain which can be removed in early phase but impossible to remove after attacking the enamel in the composition.


If something bad happened to your Chinese porcelain do not try to fix it yourself. There are special places and skilled artisans who can do this for you.

        <link>http://www.chinapottery.org//c-the-temptation-of-the-chinese-porcelain.html</link>
        <description><![CDATA[




I am going to tell you a short story about a man that was so fascinated by the Chinese porcelain that found him in front of a very important decision that had to be taken in seconds. While he was out shopping for a gift with the occasion of a friend&acirc;€™s birthday he saw an interesting multicultural kind of rustic, boutique. Unable to resist the temptation he entered the store and started to look around somehow hoping that inside there was the perfect present waiting for him. While walking through, a beautiful set of dishes attracted his attention. It was Chinese porcelain. Seeing the amazing dragon designs, the fantastic colors, the way the bright light was reflected by the smooth surface of a plate, he could not resist it. More unconscious then aware of what he was doing, he took advantage by the carelessness of the shop assistant and walked away carrying the Chinese porcelain set with him.


His passion for the Chinese culture and habits helped him purchase something he could not afford but something that he appreciated a lot. He finds Chinese porcelain the finest porcelain ever manufactured. From shape to size, from sculpture to color the Chinese porcelain is for him the living proof of exquisite taste and finesse. Everything that is exotic about the Chinese porcelain bewitches his senses and teleports his mind into another world made out of everything that China is about.



Very proud of his Chinese porcelain pieces, but not proud of the way he got them, this man uses them only for special occasions and treats them with extra care. Although he has the Chinese porcelain for some time now, every piece is intact and glamorous as it was from the beginning. As for the gift he bought for his friend, we will never know.

        <title>When Chinese Porcelain flourished</title>
        <link>http://www.chinapottery.org//c-when-chinese-porcelain-flourished.html</link>
        <description><![CDATA[




During the Song Dynasty, from 960 to 1279, Chinese porcelain has known a significant development. A great variety of porcelain started to appear including sophisticated methods for firing. The Chinese people were in love with porcelain. They created a fashion out of buying and collecting such pieces. The offer was so diverse that everyone could find a design suitable for its taste.


There were four important and well known kilns at that time named Ru, Ding, Ge and Jun plus official kilns. The official kilns were used for mass production and the porcelain usually had the same designs. The rest of them though, each had a special element. Trying to create a jade effect, Ru kiln found in Hebei Province, mixed agate into glaze. In the other province, the Henan Province, two appreciated kilns were sharing the market: Jun and Ding. Emperor Huizong who was a fine art connosseoir and a big fan of Chinese porcelain has decided that no one should have access to the pieces made in Juns kiln. Except the members of the royal family, even if they could afford it, no one had the right to touch Juns Chinese porcelain. Regarding patterns and color used for decorating the Chinese porcelain it needs to be said that there were almost no similarities among pieces. This was happening because every artisan made original pieces and fired them separately. Ding kiln was specialized in white porcelain and there purple and black colors had only ornamental purposes. Besides that it was unique because it used less color but more original and inventive motifs. The forth kiln, Ge, had as distinctive mark the quantity of Chinese porcelain it produced, this being many times greater than any other.



Depending on which province they populated, the Chinese had access to exquisite, elegant Chinese porcelain or common but precise made pieces.
