Production of celadon porcelain flourished in Jingdezhen, especially during the Northern Song Dynasty, and many refined and elegant works were created. Main characteristics of celadon porcelain: Pale blue color: The slight iron content in the glaze develops color through reduction firing, resulting in a color close to light blue, hence the name celadon. Shadow blue (影青): The areas where the glaze is thick create shadows that appear blue, which is how this name came about. Translucency: In thinly made works, the glaze may appear translucent. Relationship with Jingdezhen: Celadon porcelain is famous for being produced in Jingdezhen, Jiangxi Province, China. During the Northern Song Dynasty, the production of celadon porcelain was central to Jingdezhen, and many famous pieces were created. Use as a paperweight: Celadon paperweights are popular as collectibles due to their beauty, but their original purpose was as stationery to hold down books and documents on a desk.
