The multicolored porcelain in the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty can be divided into two categories: the overglaze multicolored porcelain and the blue-and-white multicolored porcelain, of which the overglaze multicolored porcelain can best represent the artistic characteristics of the Kangxi multicolored porcelain. The Kangxi multicolored wares in the Qing Palace are the top grade products of the official kilns or the “official kitchens and civilian kilns”. The shape of multicolored vessels in this period is characterized by simplicity, solemnity and vigor. There are many styles of multicolored wares. In addition to the style of this dynasty, there are also imitations of the style of the previous dynasty and the style of the Tang Dynasty. The imitations of the style of the previous dynasty are mostly imitations of the “Ming Dynasty Chenghua Year System”.
