The white porcelain body of Dehua kiln in the Ming Dynasty is dense and has excellent light transmittance. Because the iron oxide content in the body glaze is low and the potassium oxide content is high, the neutral atmosphere is used when firing, so the glaze color is bright and bright, and the appearance is as white as coagulating fat, so it is called “lard white” and “ivory white”. Among them, the white porcelain Buddha is even more famous. Song Yingxing’s “Heavenly Creatures” said that Dehua Kiln is good at firing exquisite characters and toys of porcelain immortals. It is said that the white porcelain of Dehua kiln is the best made by He Chaozong, a porcelain worker in the Wanli period of Jiajing.
