For lovers/collectors of fine celadon ware or teaware, we will soon introduce a selection of works from Taiwan’s famous celadon artist, Mr. Xu De-Jia.

Irene had the opportunity to visit Mr. Xu’s studio in YingGe, Taiwan this summer. Xu has made a reputation for his works of celadon (chin tzi) and celadon-white (chin bai tzi). Born in 1959, Mr. Xu started his artist career by initially focused on the design of teaware. But he was so drawn by the elegance and simplicity of Chinese traditional celadon ware of Song dynasty, he spent lots of time and effort to research the skills and firing of them.

By 1999, his works had won awards from Taiwan and Japan. And soon his celadon ware were collected by ceramic museums of YingGe, Tawian, and acquired a solid reputation among collectors in Asia.
