These gorgeous, smoky blue tea jars possess the most unctuous glaze of translucent color. Store your prized tea or whatever you like in the highest of style. A lotus pattern in shallow bas-relief is hand-sharpened into the white bisque ware with accents of incised design. The thick, translucent glaze enrobes the base and top perfectly, revealing the delicate design underneath like the breath of a watermark. These smoky blue lotus jars embody the highest level of Longquan celadon porcelain craftsmanship.
Translucent celadon porcelain has been produced in Longquan for at least nine centuries. Since the overthrow of the Northern Song dynasty in the 1120’s, all production of jade-green porcelain has been crafted by artisans in the environs of the Southern Song dynasty near Hangzhou. Over 500 historic kilns have been uncovered around Lishui and southern Zhejian province.
