"ling-lung"
(pierced) ware, also called Rice Pattern Porcelain in the west, is named
"Porcelain mounted with Glass". This kind of porcelain is the
result of blue and white glazing with rice pattern.
Rice pattern porcelain
was first developed during the Yongle reign (1403-1424 AD) in the Ming
Dynasty. This bright, transparent and elegant porcelain appeals to people.
In the Qing Dynasty, Jingdezhen potters skillfully combined blue and white
decoration with rice pattern, thus, it becomes a lovely and a typical
variety of four major Jingdezhen porcelain wares.
After the founding of
new China in 1949, especially in the recent years, Jingdezhen blue and
white porcelain with rice pattern has been rapidly developed with
considerable progress. Historically, blue and white porcelain is only used
for the decoration of small wares, like bowls and dishes, etc
Now it is also applied
on all kinds of dinner sets, tea sets and eggshell porcelain. In the past,
the rice pattern can be made in dozens of shapes, such as a water drop
pattern, a wave pattern, a petal pattern or a peach blossom pattern, etc.
Moreover, the applying of different motifs, including a peony, a phoenix
and a butterfly formed by the rice pattern, makes this type of porcelain
look more lively, pretty, natural and colourful, transforming its single
dark green colour into a polychrome rice pattern,which consists of the
mixed colours of red, yellow and green and so on. There are 700 to 800
varieties of it.
