CGTN published this video item, entitled “Live: Tides of Change Part II – A date with ‘Blanc de Chine’- Dehua Porcelain” – below is their description.
Now inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List, the kilns of Dehua County in Quanzhou, southeast China’s Fujian Province have been producing porcelain for centuries. Commonly known in the West as Blanc de Chine, meaning white from China, Dehua porcelain were a major Chinese export along the Maritime Silk Road and became popular among foreign nobility during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). Today, the porcelain capital of Dehua continues to thrive and inspire. Join CGTN as we try our hand at making some Dehua porcelain. #TidesofChange
