After the Yuan Dynasty, the porcelain industry in Jingdezhen, Jiangxi, developed rapidly. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, it became China’s center of porcelain production and was later known as the “Porcelain Capital” of China. Blue and white porcelain, famille rose porcelain, blue and white linglong porcelain, and eggshell porcelain are the four famous types of Jingdezhen porcelain, renowned worldwide for their exquisite craftsmanship and delicate lightness. In Europe, even a small piece of Jingdezhen porcelain could be treasured as a precious item and exchanged as gifts among emperors.
