Celadon glaze is well-known since the ancient times of Chinese pottery wares. The method used to produce it is by subjecting porcelain to high temperature reduction firing until the glaze gives out a transparent jade-like color.
The appearance of the lotus image on the celadon glaze background invokes in our minds a sense of tranquility and peace. The lotus petals in pinkish jade hues seemed to look like they are hidden under the morning dew from afar. It is such a beautiful spectacle, elegant and simple, yet noble. |
