Blue and White Style

The blue white porcelain had its golden age in the Chinese Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), but it believed that this porcelain type was first made in the Tang Dynasty (618-906). Especially the proverbial ‘Ming vase’ characterizes mainly the European idea of the Chinese porcelain art. The blue color is caused by a mixture of cobalt oxide and water. The color has been painted onto the porcelain before glazing and firing. After that it is coated with a transparent glaze.



Condition: The bowl is in good condition with usual signs of age and wear. Small manufacturing flaws and a hairline crack is visible inside. The height measures 9 cm. (lvp)
