The jar is handmade on the potters wheel in the traditional way. It is then decorated by hand before firing. Porcelain is steeped in centuries of Chinese culture and history. Even though pottery developed in China 15,000 years ago, most experts believe that true porcelain - which also originated in China - didn't emerge in the region until the Han Dynasty -202 BC to 220 AD.
