Exhibition: One Thousand Years of Jingdezhen Porcelain




For centuries, Jingdezhen City has been considered China's most important center for porcelain production. Ceramics were produced here as far back as the Han dynasty (206-220BC). The imperial porcelain was so exquisite it was described as being "as white as jade, as bright as a mirror, as thin as
paper, with a sound as clear as a bell".











Co-organized by Jingdezhen Culture Bureau and Jingdezhen Ceramic Museum, the exhibition One Thousand Years of Jingdezhen Porcelain offers 123 exquisite examples of Jingdezhen porcelain, dating from the Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties to pre-war and modern China. Included are eighty national
treasures, including nine Class One cultural items, sixty-six Class Two cultural items, and five Class Three cultural items. Also included are forty-three modern and contemporary pieces. The exhibition spans a period of over 1000 years.
