An exquisite sang de boeuf or 'ox blood' porcelain tianqiuping vase. Sang de boeuf refers to the colour which translates to French for 'ox blood', a colour created by oxidising iron & copper.

Sang de boeuf was one of a number of new flambé glazes, marked by unpredictable but highly decorative and varying effects. Developed in the Jingdezhen porcelain kilns during the Kangxi reign (1662-1722).

Red flambe was first developed in the 11th century and is created by mixing iron & copper. Flambe glazes were notoriously difficult and unpredictable to work with but highly decorative with varying effects. Developed in the Jingdezhen porcelain kilns during the Kangxi reign (1662-1722).

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.
