Blue & White Porcelain Meiping Vase - Dragon Design
A Blue & White Porcelain Meiping vase with gourd and trailing leaf design. This vase is hand made on the potters wheel in the traditional way. It is then decorated by hand before firing. The name "Meiping" means literally "Plum Vase" and is a style originating in the Song dynasty (960 - 1279) for use as a wine vessel. Usually they'd depict plum blossoms, but in this case, a dragon design has been used. Porcelain is steeped in centuries of Chinese culture and history. Even though pottery developed in China 15,000 years ago, most experts believe that true porcelain -which also originated in China - didn't emerge in the region until the Han Dynasty -202 BC to 220 AD. Blue and white porcelain is glazed using a transparent porcelain glaze dating back to the Tang Dynasty - 618 - 907.
