Age: 200 years material: ceramic origin: china, hunan – historical note – china has been a reference in the manufacture of vases and ceramic items for many centuries. Porcelain vases became particularly famous and were appreciated in the high european royal spheres as a symbol of status and power. Ceramics themselves are known throughout the world, although the details of their manufacture and especially the distinction between the different qualities of ceramics remain relatively unknown to the public. In general, two large groups are distinguished: low-temperature fired ceramics and high-temperature fired ceramics. Porcelain is the example of high-temperature firing that begins to cook from 1000 degrees. On the other hand, ceramics mainly made of clay are fired at 400 degrees and do not have the hardness that porcelain can have. For this reason, low-temperature ceramics have had a mainly ornamental use. This decorative vase was made with the desire to attract good omens of happiness and joy into your home.
