And then again. That&#8217;s how I felt when I saw this dish in the Shanghai Museum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think about the things that were being produced in Europe at a similar time. When you look at examples of early medieval English pottery such as Stamford ware it is clear that the skill of forming a jug had only just been mastered. By comparison it is crude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This white porcelain dragon dish is a great example of Ding ware made in the 11-12th centuries in China. Usually white in colour, Ding ware was either plain or decorated with incised, molded, impressed, or carved designs. Phoenixes, lillies, and peonies were popular. The most important types of Ding ware were\u00a0<em>bai<\/em>\u00a0Ding (\u201cwhite\u201d Ding),\u00a0<em>fen<\/em>\u00a0Ding (\u201cflour\u201d Ding), and\u00a0<em>tu<\/em>\u00a0Ding (\u201cearthen\u201d Ding). Fired upside down, many pieces of Ding ware, especially bowls, have an unglazed rim banded with metal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ding ware was particularly popular during the\u00a0Song dynasty\u00a0(AD\u00a0960\u20131279) at Dingzhou (in present Quyang Xian, Hebei province) and, after the court\u2019s transfer to the south in 1127, near\u00a0Jingdezhen,  a place still renowned for its tea ware. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shanghaimuseum.net\/museum\/frontend\/en\/index.action\">Shanghai Museum<\/a> is open Tuesday to Sunday 9am to 5pm. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every day for 30 days we will be featuring a museum obj [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[95],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3965","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-opinion-zh-hant"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
