Celadon Gift Set Celadon is a type of ceramic, typical of China and the Far East, that uses a translucent green or blue-gray glaze. Celadon was invented in the Yue region, in the Yangtze River basin, and features various styles from later periods. The name "celadon" was first used in France and derives from the characteristic pale green color, which in French is referred to as "céladon." The word in turn comes from Céladon, a character from a "precious" novel of 1607, L'Astrée, whose shepherd costume was adorned with light green ribbons. The novel L'Astrée by Honoré d'Urfé was written at a time when the qingci products from Chinese Longquan workshops were gaining popularity in France. The color of Chinese porcelain was compared to the garments of Céladon, and this association has persisted, being adopted in other Western languages. The set contains: Frog tea figurine with ceramic coin, 9-piece blue Celadon porcelain set, and traditional bamboo Chaban tray.
