Jiangxi China’s most advanced provinces for porcelain production. From ancient times to the present, Jiangxi is known to have the most famous kilns. Outside the reknown Jingdezhen, “China’ porcelain capital for 1000 years,” Jiangxi also has some of the earliest proto-porcelain kilns. Jiangxi kilns hold a supreme position in the history of Chinese ceramics. It can be also be said that if the country lacked Jiangxi province’s kiln data, China would not have a ceramic history. Guo Moruo once stated, “China is a country of porcelains and this captical (Jingdezhen)” represents the peak and height of the industry.”
