Here is a great example of Jingdezhen Chinghua after it is fired. Some of the sought after attributes of Chinghua are the consitencies in line quality, the range of tones with the cobalt, going from light to medium then to dark, attention to composition, as well as the attention to the white space. A great Chinghua piece is magical with depth that superceeds the 2 dimensional plane. Jingdezhen is superior in blue and white decoration. There are no places in the world that can rival these techniques. This blue and white decoration can be traced back about 1400 years. It is steeped in tradition and able to move easily into a contemporary direction.
