Copper Red Porcelain Meiping Vase - Phoenix
This is a reproduction of a rare underglaze copper-red Ming dynasty (1368-1644) vase. All hand turned and hand painted. Ceramics with underglaze copper-red decoration are very rare, due to their complicated production process, and originals in the past have fetched over $10 million.
During the firing process, the copper used to produce the rich raspberry red tones is difficult to control often turning grey or colourless if not handled by an experienced potter. This vase is hand made on the traditional potters wheel. It is then decorated by hand before firing.
All our reproduction Chinese porcelain is made in Jingdezhen which has been the capital of Chinese porcelain production since 1004 AD. The famous imperial kilns have been sited there since the Ming dynasty (1368 - 1644 AD). Every piece is hand painted by skilled artists using traditional techniques learned from their families and passed down through generations.
