Ru Porcelain Tea Set–Blossom

Description

Ru Porcelain

Ru porcelain (汝瓷), representing the highest quality of Chinese porcelain plays an important role in porcelain history. Born in the Song Dynasty, this star lost its glow during the long time of wars and changes of dynasties until 1958 when porcelain experts reproduced the first range of Ru porcelain products. The imperial porcelain returns.

Ru porcelain has a simple and unique colour. With the usage of the precious agate as one of the ingredients in the glaze, Ru porcelain presents an opalescent effect on the surface. The colour of the glaze looks like the edge of the sky after the rain. How romantic! People praise Ru porcelain as ”similar to jade, not jade, but more beautiful than jade’.

The glaze of Ru is soft with the small cracks like cicada wings which is another feature of Ru porcelain.
