Mise Porcelain: Impressive Discovery and Mysterious Tribute

The Palace Museum
4 Jingshan Qianjie,
Beijing, People's Republic Of China
May 25, 2017 To Jul 02, 2017


Detail: Mise porcelain (mise ci, lit. porcelain of mysterious color) is a special category of the finest celadon ceramics fired at the Yue Kiln in present-day Zhejiang Province from the ninth to the eleventh century (late Tang, 618-907, to early Northern Song, 960-1127). As tribute wares exclusively manufactured for the ruling household, mise porcelain is quintessential of the quality and aesthetics of the period's ceramic production. These ceramics were well known domestically and abroad. However, from the eleventh century (late Northern Song) onward, this form of production was discontinued and eventually forgotten by later generations.
