As the world-famed ceramic capital, Jingdezhen City has a long history of ceramics making and a rich cultural heritage. “Xinping (as the city was known as then) began to make pottery in Han Dynasty”.

In the first year in Jingde Reign of Song Dynasty (1004), the royal court decreed the city made porcelain wares for imperial use with the wording “Made during the Jingde Reign” printed on the bottom of every piece. Hence the city got its name “Jingdezhen”. From Yuan Dynasty to Ming and Qing Dynasty, emperors sent their officials to Jingdezhen to supervise the manufacture of royal porcelain. They set up the Porcelain Office and built the royal kiln, which produced many wonderful ceramic articles. Among them were those particularly famous for the four classic decorations: blue and white, famille rose, rice-pattern and color glaze.

To preserve its historic legacy, Jingdezhen government's cultural division has hired masters to continue the traditional art form. The masters continue to create porcelain based on ancient procedures.
