🇬🇧 V&A Museum’s "ALL Made in Jingdezhen" Exhibit 🏺✨

(Except Cabinet No.10: Shiwan, Dehua & Yixing wares) In posts about global ceramics—even under my own—I often see comments like "Jingdezhen does it better." Having spent two years in Jingdezhen (my studio is in Xianghu), I won’t debate this pride today. But one thing’s certain: No discussion of ceramics escapes Jingdezhen’s legacy. The V&A Museum knows this too. 🔥 The "Jingdezhen Wall" (Room 136) ▪️ A semi-circular glass cabinet filled with Qing Dynasty to early modern Jingdezhen porcelain, mostly export wares. ▪️ Cabinet 5: Stunning Imari-style pieces with gold overglaze 🏮 ▪️ Cabinet 9: Rare armorial porcelain (custom crests for European nobles) 🏰 ▪️ Most immersive display I’ve ever seen—you’re surrounded by 500 years of ceramic mastery! 💡 Why It Matters: ✅ Global influence: These wares shaped tastes from Europe to the Middle East. ✅ Artistic dialogue: Jingdezhen adapted designs for export (see: Chinese dragons + European coats of arms). ✅ Sheer awe: The curation makes you feel inside a kiln’s glow. #Ceramics #Jingdezhen #VAMuseum #Porcelain #ExportArt #LondonMuseums #CulturalHeritage 🇬🇧
