What is blue and white pottery called?
Blue and white china is also referred to as blue and white pottery or blue and white porcelain. Chinese export porcelain has long been a part of trade between East Asia and the West, and it is rooted in the days of the Silk Road. Blue patterns are painted over the white pottery, and the porcelain is decorated under a glaze with cobalt oxide, which gives it a blue color.
