Yuan Dynasty is era of  basic technology of ceramic production had already been well developed. It was only in decorative styles and new materials that the potter found scope for further experimentation and innovation.

However, in contrast to the restrained classical taste of the Sung court, the new Mongolian rulers’ disinterested attitude in the arts provided a more liberal artistic environment which was conducive to creative experimentation and new directions in decorative styles.

Single most important ceramic development during the Yuan period was the successful use of imported cobalt blue for painting under a clear glaze to produce blue-and-white porcelain.

Underglazed copper red was also used, often in conjunction with underglaze cobalt blue decoration.

Yuan Dynasty Porcelain Blue White China

Wan Li Ming Dynasty 16th Century

Late Ming blue-and-white is very commonly found in Southeast Asia and forms the largest section of this Exhibition. Many were made in South China in Kwangtung and Fukien provinces and exported through the port of Swatow, thus giving rise to the name “Swatow ware”.  This ware is heavily potted and boldly decorated often with freely drawn floral scrolls,  dragons, phoenixes, ch’ilin or other mythical beasts. The dishes are sometimes found with  Chinese inscriptions and occasionally with rather poorly written Arabic script as if the Chinese decorator was mechanically copying the foreign script without knowing what he was
writing. The bases of “Swatow wares” are typically roughly finished and partially glazed, often with sand adhering.

Large jars for storage purposes were also exported in large numbers to Southeast Asia.

Many of these export wares may also have been used in China. There is a large gap in our knowledge of the ordinary blue-and-white domestic wares used within China. Chinese literary writers did not consider these humble porcelains, made for the ordinary people, worth writing about. They must have been in everyday use in China and at the same time many were exported, particularly to the Southeast Asian area.

In China, as with all domestic wares in constant use, these vessels have long ago been broken and replaced, but overseas they were treasured and preserved. Valued for the life-time of their owners, they were then either buried with them or handed down from generation to generation.

Many of the export/ domestic wares in this Exhibition come from Indonesia, having been dug up by local people aware of the commercial value to the antique trade; or turned up in excavations for major agricultural and utility development projects; unfortunately, very often the provenance or related material has been lost forever.

These covered jars and food container were in everyday use in China and were also exported to the Overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia.

An ideal glaze was perfected in which all traces of the blue/greenish tinge had finally been removed during the Qing Period (1644-1912). This combined with the refined porcelain body produced a pure white jade-like finish in the undecorated parts and gave a crystalline depth and scintillating tone to the blue painting underneath.

Exactly when Chinese blue-and-white China Porcelain was first produced is still a subject of fervent debate among ceramic experts. Chinese tradition has it that blue-and-white was first developed in the Sung Dynasty (960-1279), then refined and put into commercial production in the Yuan Dynasty (1280-1368) and finally reached its peak of aesthetic maturity in the early Ming period (1368-1644).

However, the current opinion among most Western ceramics experts is that Chinese blue-and-white was only started in the first half of the 14th century, some time just before the middle of the Yuan Dynasty between 1322 and 1330.

Yuan Dynasty Blue White China Porcelain

It was only during the early part of the Yuan Dynasty that the underglazed blue technique was finally perfected at Ching-te Chen, possibly with the help of potters from nearby Chi Chou who had been using the underglazed decorative technique but based on brown/black iron oxide since the Southern Sung period. From early examples of Yuan blue-and-white it would  appear that the underglazed blue technique was initially used on a Ying Ch’ing or Shu Fu type porcelain body. Yuan Period (1279- 1368)

Blue white porcelain Phoenix Head Flask Yuan Dynasty

Ming Dynasty – 15 Century  Cheng Hua Blue and White Underglazed Copper – Red decorated Stem Cup

Blue White Porcelain Ceramic Red Stem Cup

By the reign of Emperor Ch’eng hua (1465-1487), a new refined elegance appears, the white glaze being thick and smooth, having lost the uneven “orange peel” effect of the earlier periods.  The blue is rather paler and softer, this being attributed to the use of local Chinese cobalt mixed with the stronger imported variety which had become scarce and expensive. The finely ground cobalt pigment also produced a more even blue without the “heaped and piled” effect of the past.

Ming Dynasty Blue and White Red Stem Cup

Ming Dynasty Porcelain Plate

Blue-and-white porcelain ceramics requires only one firing and has been considered one of the most economical of decorated porcelains to manufacture.

After firing in the kiln, the soft clay body fuses into a hard porcelain and the film of opaque glaze clarifies into a transparent glassy coating, revealing the cobalt decoration below which, under the high temperature, has turned from dark grey to blue.

The cobalt pigment used was from both imported and local sources. Before the 16th century, most of the cobalt was probably imported from Persia and called Su-ma-li or Su-ni-po blue by the Chinese, perhaps after the Persian name for cobalt, Sulimani. The imported cobalt pigment which produces a strong brilliant blue as typically seen in Yung_Lo and Hsuan Te blue-and-white Ming Dynasty
