Saucer-dish with yellow glaze
This saucer-dish demonstrates an attractive use of a monochrome yellow glaze at Jingdezhen. This colour glaze was used to decorate court porcelain for some five hundred years of the imperial era in China from AD 1403 to AD 1911. Potters fired the saucer-dish twice, first at a porcelain temperature of around 1280 to1320 °C and then in a second, lower-temperature firing to vitrify the lead-fluxed, iron-pigmented glaze. The base carries an underglaze blue Chenghua reign mark.

黃釉托盤
此托盤展示了景德鎮對單色黃釉的成功誘人使用。黃釉用來裝飾中國皇家的宮廷用瓷,有五百餘年的歷史(1403至1911年)。器物為二次燒成,首先是在約1280°C至1320°C的高溫下燒成瓷器,而後罩施以鉛為助熔劑、鐵為呈色元素的黃釉,二次入窯以低溫燒將黃釉漿玻化。器底署青花成化年款。
