Piatto raffigurante tre draghi

10th century
Not on view
Nei paesi occidentali, il termine celadon è spesso utilizzato per descrivere ceramiche ricoperte di smalto verde. In Cina tali oggetti di solito sono catalogati con i nomi delle fornaci in cui venivano fabbricati, sia per uso locale che per gli scambi commerciali. In questo esemplare uno dei tre agili draghi raffigurati ha la coda infilata sotto le zampe posteriori, disegno caratteristico delle fornaci di Yue attive nella provincia dello Zhejiang fin dal II secolo a.C. Le ceramiche Yue furono molto presenti sul mercato a partire dall’VIII e fino all’XI secolo, quando le fornaci smisero di produrre. Ne sono stati rinvenuti esemplari fino alle regioni dell’Africa occidentale.
