When did the original porcelain in China first appear?
Primitive porcelain first appeared in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Porcelain in this period is called primitive celadon, which refers to the low-level celadon with fetal gray, hard texture and thin surface glaze, and is the product of the transition from pottery to porcelain.

During this period, with the gradual improvement of pottery-making technology, the continuous improvement of technological level and the in-depth understanding of pottery-making raw materials, people gradually fired some porcelain that reached the initial standard. But it is not perfect in some aspects, so the porcelain at this stage is called "primitive celadon".

Primitive porcelain

As the product of the transition from pottery to porcelain, primitive porcelain has the characteristics of compact embryo, durability, easy cleaning and gorgeous appearance compared with various pottery. The continuous improvement of firing technology and output of primitive porcelain laid the foundation for porcelain to gradually replace pottery as the main tool in daily life.

China porcelain evolved from pottery, and the original porcelain originated more than 3000 years ago. In the Song Dynasty, famous kilns were spread all over most of China, which was the most prosperous period of porcelain industry. At that time, Jun Kiln, Ge Kiln, Guan Kiln, Ru Kiln and Ding Kiln were called five famous kilns.

Blue-and-white porcelain produced in Jingdezhen, Jiangxi Province, known as the porcelain capital, became the representative of porcelain. Blue-and-white porcelain enamel is as transparent as water, the tire is thin and light, and white porcelain is painted with blue patterns, which is elegant, fresh and full of vitality.
