China’s traditional low-temperature yellow glazed porcelain is the most famous in the Hongzhi period of the Ming Dynasty. Because Hongzhi yellow glazed porcelain is generally glazed by “pouring glaze”, it is called “pouring yellow”, and also called “delicate yellow” because of its light and delicate yellow. In the Ming Dynasty, most of the yellow-glazed porcelain were plates and bowls, and the yellow-glazed gold jars were only available in the Hongzhi Dynasty. In addition to those with curved ears, there are also those with animal ears and those without ears, all of which belong to the sacrificial devices of the court. Most of the articles handed down from generation to generation belong to the old collections of the Qing Palace
