Most of our products are imported directly from Jingdezhen, China. Jingdezhen is called the Porcelain Capital of the World. It is the single place where all Chinese Imperial porcelain was made during the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. In 1004 under the Jingde Reign of Song Dynasty, Emperor Zhenzong ordered royal porcelains to be made by the best kilns of the city and marked with the inscription “Made in the reign of Jingde”. Hence the city was named “Jingdezhen”. By the Ming Dynasty (about the 14th century), Jingdezhen porcelain technique reached its peak. Since the Yuan Dynasty (about 13th century), the number of royal kilns in Jingdezhen remarkably increased and the court also sent supervisors to oversee the production process. The fine porcelains of Jingdezhen impressed the traders of the Silk Road who took them to many countries as far as the Middle East and Europe. The price of porcelains in those markets equaled that of gold hence the nickname “white gold”. Jingdezhen porcelains were on board the famous treasure fleets led by the great navigator Zheng He. Nowadays, porcelain remains the most important industry in Jingdezhen.
The most famous decorative types of Jingdezhen porcelains are: blue details on white, celadon, rice patterned and colour glaze in which the classic blue-and-white is said to be the result of Middle East influence. Porcelains produced in Jingdezhen have been praised to be “as white as jade, as bright as mirror, as thin as paper, as resonant as a chime”.
