* Han Dynasty Green-Glaze
Han Dynasty Green Glaze Pottery represents a significant aspect of ancient Chinese ceramics. Spanning from 206 BCE to 220 CE, this period marked a considerable advancement in pottery techniques and aesthetic refinement compared to earlier times.
The pottery is renowned for its distinctive green glaze, achieved through the use of copper-containing glazes. These glazes produced the green color during firing, as compounds with copper oxide reacted. This green glaze imparted a unique artistic effect, reflecting significant artistic values in Chinese society of the time.
Han Dynasty pottery also showcased advancements in form and design, reflecting the complexity and sophistication of the society and culture. These pieces, varying in shapes and sizes, often featured intricate decorations. Many were used as burial objects, reflecting ancient Chinese beliefs about death and the afterlife.
