Porcelain, also referred to as "fine china," was introduced from the eastern world through Asian trade routes many thousands of years ago. By the time that porcelain artworks were introduced to the western world, region-specific styles were the norm. The characteristic beautiful colors, refined sculpture, and fine texture have kept these high-quality pieces in high regard throughout the centuries.

Due to its luster and durability, items made of porcelain quickly became a necessity of everyday life. Fashioned into storage boxes, musical instruments, incense burners, jewel cases, vases, tea sets, bowls and cups, porcelain continually gained popularity. Moreover, since artisans created their porcelain wares individually, there was no duplication among the decorative colors and patterns. Consequently, each porcelain creation was considered even more precious.

The great variety of porcelain styles available continues to allow collectors to purchase the pieces that suit their particular tastes. One of the most popular styles, the blue and white colored porcelain associated with the Ming dynasty, was widely produced, and remains highly desirable up to the present. Another popular and recognized pattern is rose porcelain, appearing during the seventeenth century.

With its fine texture, colorful glazes, and distinctive patterns, it is no wonder that porcelain pieces have never lost their allure and have remained highly desirable since their inception. The refined color pigments implemented usually result in finished pieces that are elegant, colorful, and clean. After thousands of years and many interpretations, the brilliance of these exquisite and unique pieces still attract collectors in every corner of the world.
