Set of 2 Celadon porcelain cups, in pastel green or cyan blue color, with a decoration of carp inside that makes sipping tea pleasant and fun. Celadon porcelain is particularly appreciated in China, Korea, Thailand, and Japan. To create this accessory, artisans proceed with a slip-washing (liquefied clay), which contains a high percentage of iron, on the body of the accessory before glazing. The iron interacts with the glaze during firing and colors it in one of the various shades of green or blue. Originally made in China, Celadon was exported to India, Persia, and Egypt during the Tang dynasty (618-907), to most of Asia during the Song (960-1279) and Ming (1368-1644) dynasties, and to Europe in the 14th century. The products were popular for their beauty; even the Chinese appreciate them because they resemble jade.
