Using techniques that have remained unchanged for hundreds of years and materials from Jiangxi (the source of some of the world's finest porcelain clay), craftsmen create these exquisite hand-made jars just as their ancestors did. These pieces are shaped, carved gently, dried; given one thin coat of clear glaze; and placed in the kiln. They are the true color of porcelain when fired: bright, almost translucent, with an interlacing of the finest crackling embracing the surface. Without the stability that paints, pigments and multiple glazes offer, they're among the most difficult to create: just 20% of the bisques remain intact through firing – but those that do offer ethereal beauty for the ages
