In English, the word for fine porcelain is 'china'. Since the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220), around 2,000 years ago, the city of Jingdezhen in Jiangxi province has been a center of the art and skills needed to make the vases and tableware coveted by European royalty and on display in museums around the world. Jingdezhen china was so valuable Europeans called it 'white gold'. Now, Jingdezhen is not just preserving this heritage.Advertorial
