Traditional pottery CHAO ZHOU CHINA

By: admin
Published: January 20th, 2010

Having just returned from a pottery trip to southern China I wanted to put up a slide show of a Traditional Dragon Kiln and potters working in the town of Chao Zhou. The colors of the fly ash from this kiln are indescribable . This is found art at its best ! This work needs to be celebrated and the potters honored for keeping alive this amazing tradition .

    Looks as if you had a nice trip, hope you did. Lovely pots. It’s a bit sad to see them all heaped up with the greenery growing over them. I guess it’s a sign of the times.
