The main Yue Kiln first appeared in the Tang Dynasty(618-907). The kilns in today\'s Huiji, Shanyin, Zhuji, Yuyao, Shanxian, Xiaoshan, and Shangyu counties, which belonged to the Yue Prefecture in the Tang Dynasty, are all part of the Yue Kiln, which is famous for its fine celadon productions. The Yue Kiln flourished during the Tang Dynasty (618-907) and the Five Dynastiesperiod (907-960), and the kiln\'s celadon was famous both near and far, occupying an important position in the development of Chinese pottery.
With the first phase of development falling from the Eastern Han (25-220) to the Sui dynasties (581-618), early Yue Kiln pottery was simple in style. By the time of the Tang Dynasty, the pottery-making techniques had achieved great improvements, with the pottery industry also having developed to a high level. Archaeological evidence has proved that the Shanglinhu Yue Kiln started producing exquisite pottery tributes especially for the emperors as early as late in the Tang Dynasty.
During the Five Dynasties and Ten States Period (902-960), official kilns were built in Shanglinhu (located in Shanglinhu of Cixi County, formerly of Yuyao County, East China\'s Zhejiang Province) and other places devoted strictly to producing pottery as tributes to the imperial family. The pottry products adopted advanced color-glazing crafts and were decorated with gold, silver, and copper edges, including patterns of rare animals, fish, tortoises, flowers, grass, and human figures that employed carving, enchasing (inlaying), and other techniques.
The Shanglinhu Yue Kiln Celadon has acquired a great reputation due to its high quality and exquisite design. Since the Tang Dynasty, the celadon has been sold to countries and regions such as Korea, Japan, and the Middle East via Mingzhou andHangzhoucities in Zhejiang Province.
Background knowledge: Art&Culture of the Three Kingdoms, the Western & Eastern Jin periodClick here for detailsThe Three Kingdoms period is a period in the history of China, part of an era of disunity called the Six Dynasties following immediately the loss of de facto power of the Han Dynasty emperors. In a strict academic sense it refers to the period between the foundation of the Wei in 220 and the conquest of the Wu by the Jin Dynasty in 280. However, many Chinese historians and laymen extend the starting point of this period back to the uprising of the Yellow Turbans in 184.
The three kingdoms were Wei, Shu, and Wu. To help further distinguish these states from other historical Chinese states of the same name, historians add a relevant character: Wei is also known as Cao Wei, Shu is also known as Shu Han, and Wu is also known as Dong Wu or Eastern Wu. The term Three Kingdoms itself is somewhat of a mistranslation, since each state was eventually headed not by kings, but by an emperor who claimed legitimate succession from the Han Dynasty. Although the translation Three Empires is more contextually accurate, the term Three Kingdoms has become standard among sinologists.
The earlier, \"unofficial\" part of the period, from 184 to 220, was marked by chaotic infighting between warlords in various parts of China. The middle part of the period, from 220 and 263, was marked by a more militarily stable arrangement between three rival states, Cao Wei, Shu Han, and Eastern Wu. The later part of this period was marked by the collapse of the tripartite situation: first the destruction of Shu by Wei (263), then the overthrow of Wei by the Jin Dynasty (265), and the destruction of Wu by Jin (280).
Although relatively short, this historical period has been greatly romanticised in the cultures of China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam. It has been celebrated and popularised in operas, folk stories, novels and in more recent times, films, television series, and video games. The best known of these is undoubtedly the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, a novel dealing with the period that draws heavily on history. The authoritative historical record of the era is Chen Shou\'s Sanguo Zhi, along with Pei Songzhi\'s later annotations of the text.
The Jin conquered Wu and unified China in 280, but internal conflicts, corruption, and political turmoil quickly weakened the dynasty, and the unification lasted only ten years. Upon the advent of the second Jin emperor, Emperor Hui, various imperial princes tried to grab power in the devastating War of the Eight Princes. The Wu-Hu uprising followed, during which large numbers of refugees fled south while the north was occupied by various nomadic tribes. This marked the end of the Western Jin dynasty in 316 when the Jin court evacuated to the region south of the Huai River, and the beginning of the Eastern Jin and the Sixteen Kingdoms period. Sima Rui founded the Eastern Jin at Jiankang in 317, with its territory stretching across most of today\'s southern China. The combination of the Eastern Jin and Sixteen Kingdoms period is sometimes called the Eastern Jin Sixteen Kingdoms.
The Jin Dynasty is well known for the quality of its greenish celadon porcelain wares, which immediately followed the development of proto-celadon. Jar designs often incorporated animal, as well as Buddhist, figures.
